Summary | In this research paper I will concentrate on the various legal methods and practices used in the United States and in the Hungarian construction industry by its participants with the purpose of securing and defending themselves.

Furthermore, I will also examine the peculiarities of these recommended legal devices, and – with the assistance of court cases – clarify those statutory rules that have an impact on the progress of construction projects in respect of the two aforementioned aspects.
