Providing Trusted Legal Support Across Various Practice Areas
Construction Law & Projects
The construction industry in Jordan and the wider Middle East is a cornerstone of economic development, with projects that shape infrastructure, energy, real estate, and industrial growth. These ventures often involve hundreds of millions of dollars in investment, multiple stakeholders, and complex regulatory frameworks. At Al-Omari Law Firm, we bring over three decades of experience to guiding clients through every legal aspect of construction projects, from inception to completion.
Our role begins with licensing and regulatory approvals. We have assisted developers and investors in securing the permits and authorizations necessary to launch large-scale construction projects. By working closely with governmental authorities, we ensure compliance with zoning, environmental, and safety regulations, preventing costly delays and safeguarding our clients’ long-term interests.
Equally important is our expertise in FIDIC-based contracts. We regularly review, edit, and draft FIDIC contracts, tailoring them to protect our clients’ interests and ensure enforceability under Jordanian law. Our firm has extensive experience in FIDIC arbitration disputes, where we represent contractors, developers, and investors in high-value claims. Within our team, we have lawyers trained under international FIDIC engineer trainers, giving us a unique ability to understand not only the legal issues but also the technical dimensions of construction disputes and advisory work. This dual legal-technical perspective sets us apart in resolving complex project matters.
Due diligence forms another pillar of our practice. Before a project breaks ground, we conduct in-depth reviews of land rights, financing arrangements, environmental obligations, and contractor credentials. This comprehensive process allows our clients to proceed with certainty, knowing that their project stands on a solid legal foundation and complies with both national laws and international standards.
Throughout the construction and operational phases, we continue to stand beside our clients. Whether advising on claims and change orders, mediating disputes with contractors, or representing clients in arbitration or court proceedings, our firm combines sector knowledge with strong advocacy skills. For over 30 years, we have ensured that construction projects in Jordan are not only legally compliant but also positioned for sustainable success.
