A Construction Escrow Agreement is essential in large-scale construction projects where significant funds need to be managed securely. This document, governed by English and Welsh law, establishes a framework for protecting both the employer's and contractor's interests by having funds held by an independent third party. The agreement specifies conditions for fund releases, typically tied to construction milestones, and includes detailed procedures for fund management, dispute resolution, and the escrow agent's duties. It's particularly valuable when projects involve substantial payments or multiple construction phases.
