Security of payment legislation and navigating construction disputes
The construction industry operates on tight margins, high stakes, and complex legal frameworks—nowhere is this more evident than in payment disputes.
This short course is tailored for lawyers at all levels. It provides an in-depth examination of the Building and Construction Industry Security of Payment Act and other critical legislation that underpins payment disputes in Australia.
You’ll explore the adjudication process, learn to craft and respond to payment claims, and gain insights into resolving disputes efficiently and effectively.
At the end of the course, you will be able to:
- Demonstrate an understanding of the purpose of security payment legislation
- Navigate the payment claim and adjudication process
- Resolve disputes and enforce rights in a payment claim
Course Structure
- Introduction to the basics of security of payment legislation
- Navigating the payment claim process
- Adjudication under the security of payment legislation
- Resolving disputes and enforcing rights

I found this course quite challenging, but have learnt much more about the practical part than I ever did during university.
