Construction law is complex and multi-faceted. While it draws on areas of law familiar to most practitioners, such as contracts and torts, it involves a host of specialized issues and presents a myriad of unique challenges.

Halsbury's Laws of Canada – Construction provides practitioners with the basic guidance needed to understand the fundamentals of the legal principles, issues and questions that arise in the course of building projects, especially those questions that fall outside the scope of their own fields of experience.
