The investment process is a complex undertaking that requires knowledge of many regulations and experience in dealing with administrative authorities. Our law firm supports investors at every stage of the investment process – from analyzing the legal status of real estate, through obtaining administrative decisions, to supervising the performance of contracts and settling accounts for works. We represent investors in disputes with administrative authorities and in court proceedings related to the implementation of investments.
We support investors in the planning and implementation of investments – from administrative matters to settlements with contractors. We support investors in analyzing the legal status of real estate, help develop the site in accordance with applicable regulations, and represent clients in proceedings for the issuance of administrative decisions – such as zoning decisions, environmental decisions, and building permits. We advise on the preparation and review of design contracts, contracts with contractors, and subcontracting agreements, taking into account the appropriate safeguards for the investor’s interests. We also support our clients in the implementation of “design and build” projects by preparing and negotiating appropriate construction contracts. In our practice, we also use FIDIC contract standards.
We provide legal assistance in the investment financing process, participate in negotiations with business partners, and support clients in the settlement of contracts and construction works. If necessary, we represent investors in disputes concerning non-performance or improper performance of contracts, enforcement of contractual penalties, claims for damages, or issues of liability of construction partners.
We have been advising developers, private investors, and institutions financing construction investments for many years. Our specialization includes conducting administrative and administrative court proceedings, as well as preparing and negotiating construction contracts. We have supported the implementation of investments involving residential construction, office and commercial facilities, infrastructure investments, and the revitalization of historic buildings.
We have advised on legally complex projects involving multiple contractors and subcontractors, problems with obtaining permits, and cases where disputes had to be resolved in court or through administrative proceedings. We have negotiated disputes concerning delays, changes in the scope of work, final settlements and contract withdrawals, among other things.
The implementation of a construction project is a process that does not end with the signing of contracts – it requires active legal supervision at every stage. With the support of our law firm, investors can focus on the business aspect of the project, confident that their legal interests are properly protected. We do not only act when a problem arises – we help to anticipate risks and avoid them.
We represent clients in their dealings with administrative authorities, assist in matters related to spatial planning, and provide ongoing opinions on documentation that may be of significant importance for the implementation of the investment. Our legal services take into account the specific nature of the relationship between the investor, designer, contractor, and investor supervision – we make sure that every element is compliant with the regulations and well-structured in the contract.
The investment process involves a number of legal obligations and risks that must be identified at the stage of property acquisition and investment planning. Administrative decisions are of key importance – including environmental decisions, zoning conditions, and building permits – without which it is impossible to legally commence work. Already at the design stage, it is important to ensure that contractual relations with the architect and designers are properly established. During the execution of works, it is necessary to have precisely defined contracts with contractors and subcontractors that will protect the investor in the event of delays, defects or improper performance.
Disputes often arise from imprecise contracts, especially regarding the scope of work, settlements, and liability. It is also worth remembering the legal and administrative risks – proceedings concerning contract performance, compensation or dispute resolution with building supervision authorities can take years and have serious financial consequences. The earlier you engage a lawyer, the greater the chance that your investment will be completed without delays or disputes.
