Construction Law Episode 22: Bankruptcy and Insolvency in Construction

In this episode, we explore the complexities of bankruptcy and insolvency as they impact construction projects, drawing from Julian Bailey's Construction Law. We discuss the financial risks inherent to construction, such as contractor insolvency, and how these can halt or disrupt project timelines. The episode examines key legal principles related to insolvency proceedings, the treatment of contracts during bankruptcy, and the rights and obligations of creditors, contractors, and subcontractors. We also delve into protective measures that parties can adopt, such as retention of title clauses and performance bonds, to mitigate financial risks and safeguard project continuity in the event of insolvency.
