Get Paid for Work Done
Your secret weapon to getting paid.
With over $20 billion in unpaid construction invoices circulating across Australia each year, cash flow issues pose a serious threat to construction businesses. In fact, nearly 30% of construction businesses go bust annually due to poor cash flow.
To combat this, the NSW Government has introduced a rapid fast construction debt recovery process under the Security of Payment (SOPA) laws, known as adjudication.
Adjudication is the most effective way for construction businesses to reclaim their hard-earned money and ensure it ends up where it belongs – in their hands.

Posted on Ken ChanMarch 6, 2024 It is a really amazing efficiency for work of Lauderdale. I have a case which one of my client set up for me with a dodgy company. Patrick help me to analyze the best way for chasing up my money back. Lauderdale is really professional and never waist your time with affordable cost. I will refer them to all my friend who is encounter with this issue.Posted on Shannon ThomasNovember 22, 2020 Our company been in business for many years and never required legal assistance to retrieve funds for work completed. When we did, Lauderdale Construction Lawyers were fantastic to engage. From great rates for a lawyer firm to a very quick response from our client who previously avoided all communication. The funds were paid to us within 2 days from receiving a letter from Lauderdale Construction Lawyers. The process was explained prior and executed as stated. Couldn't be more happier with the result from Pat and the team.Posted on Ashley HaywardDecember 3, 2019 I came to Lauderdale via referral from a friend and the whole process has been made easy for me to take a builder to adjudication and court I would 100% recommend this team as they are honest and do exactly as they say they will for a fair price.
