The New Zealand Society of Construction Law was formed in 2005 to address a perceived need within New Zealand for a body to promote research and education in the field of construction law and a means by which people from throughout the industry could come together to discuss issues relating to construction law.
The Society has members from all sectors of the construction industry, including lawyers, contractors, architects, engineers, quantity surveyors, insurers and the like. The Society meets regularly (around once a month), usually in both Auckland and Wellington, for presentations by speakers, and these meetings also provide an opportunity for informal networking. There is no cost to members to attend these meetings. Copies of papers presented at these meetings are available to members in the 'Members Only' section of the website.
The Society also maintains ties with its sister societies in the UK, Australia, Hong Kong and Singapore, so that members are kept up-to-date about news and upcoming events in the construction industry in those jurisdictions.
The Society welcomes new members and invites anyone with a strong interest in construction law to apply for membership.
