Engineering Consultant Law

Austrian civil engineering law regulates the legal aspects of the work of civil engineers, in particular civil engineers and architects. In addition to professional regulations, it also covers issues relating to liability, contracts, and remuneration.

Civil engineering law deals with the specific legal framework for civil engineers who work as independent experts in fields such as architecture, engineering, and urban planning. Key topics in this area of law include the legal basis of the profession, liability for faulty planning or consulting, and contractual relationships with clients. Regulations on remuneration and compliance with standards and regulations are also key aspects.

We are happy to assist you with contractual issues, liability issues, and the clarification of problems in connection with the implementation of projects.

Austrian administrative law governs relations between citizens and public authorities as well as the implementation of administrative procedures. It is a central component of the principle of the rule of law and ensures the lawful administration of public tasks.

Administrative law in Austria encompasses a wide range of legal provisions and procedures that regulate the actions of public authorities and their supervision by the courts. It forms the legal basis for state intervention in the lives of citizens, for example in the form of permits, administrative penalties, or building regulations.
