Real Estate & Construction

The construction sector is one of the most important and vital sectors in the UAE. Just like any other sector and due to its nature, many related problems may arise such as:

  • A party's breach of contract in terms of the good performance of works.
  • Delay in the execution thereof.
  • The issuance of a change of orders in the works delegated to the Contract, normally leading to a prolongation of the project term.

Other problems may occur when the main contractor or subcontractor breaches the contracted specifications or the employer solely and intentionally withdraws from the execution of the contracting agreement. The Federal Civil Transactions Act No. 5 of 1985 regulates all disputes arising between the owners, contractors or subcontractors in Articles 872 to 890.
