Construction and engineering legal service
Legal solutions for Construction & Engineering
If you’re in the construction industry, you’re probably no stranger to a lawyers office. And it’s probably not your best afternoon of the week. At Legalese we do things differently: upfront costs, strict turnaround times and a lawyer who wants to help cut red tape and be part of the solution.
Tailor-made construction & engineering legal services
Commercial Law
If it’s related to the contracts in your business, then we can help. We can take care of the legal commercials so you can focus on building properties and your business.
Labour Law
Your company won’t run without your team and if you’re growing so are the number of seats in the office. We can help with all aspects of managing your growing team – from structure to policies to disciplinary enquiries.
Data Law
If your business collects or uses personal data (and that’s all of us), then data protection laws are applicable to you. Join the hundreds of clients who’ve trusted Legalese to guide them on the journey to data compliance.
Intellectual Property Law
If you’re a modern business, then you have some form of intellectual property which is valuable to you. And that value needs to be protected. Your trademark needs to be protected, your secret-sauces kept secret and your IP structured in a way which works. Chat to us. This is our jam.

Why Legalese?
Upfront
fees
We quote before we start working, ensuring that you never get an invoice which you were not expecting. By committing to a fee, we align ourselves with our clients, so we’re both incentivised to work efficiently and correctly. Our belief is that legal fees should be affordable and transparent and we’re leading a movement bringing this ethic to the legal practice.
Quick turnaround
time
Lawyers are traditionally sluggish. We’re a breathe of fresh air. Our systematic approach to our work means we deliver work quickly and never ghost our clients while they wait. Imagine a lawyer who understands customer service, uses technology to communicate and gets work to you within 7 – 10 days (or sooner if needed). Now open your eyes.
Humans,
not lawyers
We built Legalese to address the problems with traditional law firms. We’re not suits, we’re not billable hours. We’re here to ensure you have a lawyer by your side while you build your business. Our lawyers are handpicked not just for their smarts but for their understanding of business and the entrepreneurial journey. In that way, we’re humans, not lawyers.
We understand
construction and law
It doesn’t help to have a lawyer who always says ‘no’. Our lawyers think creatively and design solutions which stick to the rules, but get the job done. We bring to the table our knowledge of your industry and our team’s years of experience, to ensure that we’re forward thinking, yet grounded in law. Its why we call ourselves a creative legal agency.
WE DON’T BELIEVE IN HIDDEN FEES
