Construction Law
Pre-Construction Contract Review, Negotiation & Drafting
Construction law is complex. You need an attorney familiar with the unique issues that can arise in a construction matter at the time you are negotiating a contract with an owner or contractor. Often resolving a few questions up front can save you time, expense -- and headaches - during the project, regardless of whether you are an owner, contractor or subcontractor. By obtaining legal advice before the contract is signed, you likely can minimize wasted time and money and dodge common pitfalls.
Construction Mediation, Arbitration and Litigation
Construction law can turn contentious, especially when time runs out, money dries up, or expectations are unfulfilled. We have experience representing owners, contractors, subcontractors and suppliers in commercial and residential construction cases throughout mediation, arbitration and litigation. Our experience includes pursuing or defending against claims for breach of contract or warranty, lien and bond rights, wrongful termination, failure or delay in payment, extras and change orders, and design defects and delays. Because construction law is document intensive, your lawyer cannot shy away from the extensive review needed to evaluate and prepare your case. Time spent organizing and evaluating a case, and selecting a sound initial strategy, goes a long way in trying to reach your goal or bring the case to a successful resolution. We endeavor to provide honest and fair assessments early and pursue your interests vigorously throughout the litigation.
