Show Notes
Welcome to the Fix & Fly Podcast hosted by Larissa Logan from Fixity.
Our next guest is John Stephens, Partner at Cuncannon, a boutique law firm specialising in commercial, regulatory and litigation needs.
John and Larissa dig into the real legal challenges facing NZ's construction sector — from understanding your contracts before you sign them, to what happens when retentions aren't paid and how to protect yourself if a head contractor goes under.
John shares why subcontractors are the most vulnerable in the chain, why getting legal advice early is the single best investment you can make, and why communication and transparency are the difference between a successful project and an expensive dispute.
If you're a subcontractor, head contractor or developer, this episode is packed with practical advice that could save your business.
