A practical, legal resource for construction professionals operating in the UAE and the Gulf region

In the newly revised and updated second edition of Construction Law in the United Arab Emirates and the Gulf, experienced construction lawyer Michael Grose delivers an authoritative guide to construction law in the UAE and the Gulf. The book explains the most significant contrasts between construction law governed by an Islamic civil law jurisdiction and construction law in common law jurisdictions, as well as the practical impacts of those differences.

Grose explains critical areas of immediate, practical importance to construction industry participants dealing with contracts and disputes. He also offers a detailed commentary on the standard FIDIC (First Edition) conditions of contract for construction that is updated to deal with recent changes in law.

Inside the book:

  • Extensive primary source material, including domestic court judgments and local laws
  • Extensive reference to the Saudi Civil Code and the Saudi Law of Evidence
  • Recent developments and current trends in arbitration, civil procedure and mediation laws in the region
  • Comprehensive exploration of the differences between Islamic civil law as applied in Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE
  • Thorough treatment of the laws, regulations, and codes relevant to construction businesses operating in the UAE and the Gulf

Perfect for construction lawyers, claims consultants, arbitrators, and contractors, Construction Law in the United Arab Emirates and the Gulf will also benefit loss adjusters and insurers, architects, engineers, quantity surveyors, and other construction practitioners.
