Legal Services for Construction and Contracting Companies

Construction companies play a central role in Kuwait’s development, especially in state-led infrastructure projects, which are governed by specialized laws such as the Public Tenders Law No. 49 of 2016, the Companies Law, the Labor Law, and various municipal and environmental regulations.

 

At Taqneen Law Firm, we offer comprehensive legal representation for contracting and infrastructure firms, including:

  • Reviewing and drafting all types of construction contracts, including general contracting, subcontracting, and project management agreements, based on the Civil Transactions Law and established principles of contractual balance and risk sharing.
  • Providing legal advice in government tendering processes, and following up on all phases of bidding, award, appeal, and execution, in compliance with the conditions of the Central Agency for Public Tenders.
  • Representing companies in disputes arising from delays, violations, technical defects, or payment issues, whether before courts or in engineering-related arbitration.
  • Advising on labor-related matters in construction projects, particularly in relation to the employment of manpower, occupational safety regulations, and compensation for workplace injuries, under the Labor Law No. 6 of 2010.
  • Structuring legal relationships with suppliers and subcontractors, and drafting supply and procurement contracts in a way that mitigates contractual and operational risks.

 

We place our legal expertise at the service of construction companies to help ensure operational continuity and prevent disputes that can jeopardize high-value development projects.
