Project Manager

Overview

Project managers are required to bring a project to completion on time, on budget and to the expected quality while being faced with the challenges of complex documentation, constantly changing legislation, the conflicting interests of stakeholders, as well as unexpected obstacles on site.

ITC lawyers combine practical field experience with up to the minute knowledge of construction law to provide practical solutions to complex issues. We are experts at identifying risks and preparing and negotiating appropriate documentation to appropriately allocate those risks. If a claim is made or a dispute arises, we can assist in managing the process to reach a resolution in a timely and cost-effective manner.

In addition to the specialised construction law services, ITC provides a full range of cost effective legal assistance from conveyancing transactions to complex litigation.
