Construction Law cover

Now in its fourth edition, Construction Law by Julian Bailey is the definitive work of reference for construction law practitioners internationally. In three volumes, spanning more than 3,300 pages, it provides the most comprehensive treatment of the major issues arising out of construction and engineering projects, with extensive references to case law, statutes and regulations, standard forms of contract and legal commentary. The book in its new, updated and expanded form (some 2,345 new judgments and awards are cited in this edition) is indispensable for law practitioners, and is accessibly priced for the individual professional and postgraduate student markets.


Construction Law is a magisterial work. It is impossible to praise it too highly… The author has … covered the breadth of construction law with great skill and clarity. Simply outstanding. It is indispensable. It is a modern classic.” 
— Michael Christie SCBuilding and Construction Law Journal

Construction Law is an invaluable reference work for practising lawyers, academics and construction professionals working in any common law jurisdiction… I do not hesitate to recommend this book for its comprehensive coverage, its scholarship and its remarkably good value. Bailey offers the reader a salient reminder of why the world of construction law rewards deep and thorough analysis.” 
— Professor David MoseyConstruction Law

“Outstanding… Wherever one looks, the completeness of coverage and case citation stands out, as does the clarity of the exposition. Practitioners need this… This is a true practitioner’s work in an area where much law is made and practised here and overseas.” 
— Richard Wilmot-Smith KCLaw Quarterly Review

“The third edition went into print earlier this year, and London Publishing Partnership has produced a magnificent book whose physical quality is every bit as exceptional as its contents.” 
— Stephen HessThe Construction Lawyer (American Bar Association)
 
“The second edition of Construction Law stands upon the shoulders of the giant achievement that was the first, and encourages us to look forward to many further editions which will continue to illuminate our fascinating yet complex area of law. The international construction law community is once more in Julian Bailey’s debt.” 
— Dr Matthew BellConstruction Law International

“Bailey has once again created a practical epic, establishing himself as a virtuoso of construction law on an international scale. The second edition, like the first, is a friend to construction law, written as a guide to the field’s ins-and-outs and a tool to navigate its halls. I have full confidence in recommending this text to any practitioner or student in need of a comprehensive and authoritative collection of all things construction related.” 
— Professor Doug S Jones AOInternational Construction Law Review

“Ideal for not only you construction industry solicitors and barristers but also for you consultants – indeed all of us dealing with the everyday conundrums about standard forms, non-standard forms, statutes and case law.” 
— Tony Bingham, Barrister and Arbitrator, Building Magazine
