Adjudicators and Security of Payment

Security of Payment legislation, enacted ten years ago, is often a complex and contentious area of law.

The case, and in some jurisdictions the statute law, dealing with the avoidance of adverse Adjudicator determinations has advanced substantially in recent months.

This seminar will address the grounds for seeking to avoid an adverse determination in all Australian jurisdictions.
