In our previous blogs
part 1 and
part 2 of this series, we highlighted a number of key
provisions that should be considered in construction contracts.
Below we will touch on three more important clauses that should be
considered. These provisions are Choice of Law, Change in Law, and
Dispute Resolution:

This provision is important in determining the governing law
that applies in a dispute. In construction contracts, this
provision often identifies the location of the project to be the
applicable governing law. However, this provision should set out
both the law that governs the contract and the jurisdiction to
which the parties attorn to or agree to for resolving disputes.
