George-based boutique law and consultancy practice led by an advocate, focused on engineering, construction, infrastructure and energy contracts and disputes.
Chris Roos & Associates (Pty) Ltd is a small construction and infrastructure law practice with its listed base at 3 Varing Avenue in Windsor Park, George, and further working offices in Cape Town and Knysna. It is led by Advocate Chris Roos, who has more than 30 years of experience on large capital projects. He holds an LLB from UNISA, a management development qualification from the University of Manchester, a certificate in advanced contract and construction law from the University of Pretoria and a national diploma in advanced project management, and he is a certified mediator with an arbitration qualification. The firm says it has worked in this field for 14 years.
The work sits where law meets engineering. The practice drafts and negotiates construction and professional appointment contracts, EPC, EPCM and operation and maintenance agreements, joint ventures and concessions. When projects go wrong it prepares and defends claims for delay, disruption and defects, handles suspension and termination, and represents parties in mediation, adjudication and arbitration. A separate forensic service builds chronologies and issue matrices from project records and identifies which delay, quantum and engineering witnesses a case needs.
It also advises on public procurement and tender compliance, offers retainers and training, and runs a WhatsApp discussion group on construction contract problems with more than 500 members. Mandates come from across South Africa, elsewhere in Africa and Mauritius.
Developers, investors and banks, contractors, energy and resource companies, consulting engineers and state bodies involved in building and infrastructure projects.
