The International Construction Law Alliance was established in June 2000. It comprises a number of law firms that are experts in the area of construction law in a number of countries in both hemispheres.

There are very few places on the planet that have not utilised the services of the Alliance. Advice has been given in most Western jurisdictions in addition to the Eastern Block, Africa and Asia.

The cross-jurisdictional Alliance ensures that clients who operate (or plan to operate) on a cross-border basis can have lawyers from a common grouping.

The member firms have been chosen by design, the criteria being excellence in the area of construction law and a significant client base in construction law. Many member lawyers of these firms have published material on construction law including leading texts in their respective jurisdictions.

Another stipulation for the Alliance is that only one firm per jurisdiction is eligible for membership, hence the ICLA has only one Australian member firm, being Lovegrove Solicitors.
