Defeating an invalid arbitration clause in a construction dispute
2026
Our law firm successfully represented claimants in a construction dispute involving alleged overpayment and delays by an architect. The Nicosia District Court rejected the architect’s application to stay proceedings, finding that the document containing the arbitration clause had been signed by a third party without authority to bind the claimants. The court proceedings could continue, with costs awarded to the claimants.
