Description
A unique construction law text, describing all the routes to recovery of payment for work that are not to be found in the express words of the contract. It contains both legal scholarship and practical guidance, and will be a particularly valuable tool for those seeking payment in the face of oppressive contract conditions.
"This text, the magnum opus of an already impressive oeuvre, will make a formidable contribution to the domain of construction law and provide great value to counsel, arbitrators, judges and construction industry participants at all levels of the industry." From the Foreword by Douglas Jones, international commercial and investor/state arbitrator and an International Judge of the Singapore International Commercial Court.
