This is Episode 1 (the first episode!) in our Toolbox Tuesday series, a podcast series for Queensland-based builders and tradies. 

We break down the law and other legal concepts into clear, easy-to-understand insights. Each episode focuses on a specific “tool” you should use in your day-to-day construction business from written contracts, managing risks and dealing with common disputes. It’s about giving builders and tradies the knowledge and confidence to make informed decisions, without the legal jargon.
