Description
This essential guide is for all professional advisors and contractors who advise on or make a contract with a consumer.
UK Consumer Rights legislation imposes obligations designed to protect the consumer client which can trip up an unwary architect or contractor and leave them exposed to significant contractual risk, charges of negligence, or statutory fines.
A Short Guide to Consumer Rights in Construction Contracts provides an accessible guide to the legislation, clearly explaining exactly what needs to be done and when.
The guide:
- Is applicable to both professional appointments and building contracts
- Explains how to comply with all the relevant law, including the Unfair Terms in Consumer Contracts Regulations; The Cancellation of Contracts made in a Consumer’s Home or Place of Work etc. Regulations; and The Provision of Services Regulations
- Provides easy-to-use model contract clauses and model notes to clients, which the reader can use to outline the client’s rights and meet their obligations
Free download: template model clauses and notices related to consumers’ rights
Template versions of the model clauses and notes to accompany the guide are freely available for download from the Extracts and Additional Materials secton below.
