Pre-construction
contract review, negotiation and drafting
Construction
law is complex, and requires an attorney who is familiar with the unique
issues that arise in a construction dispute.
Evolving issues of project delivery systems from construction
management, design/build, and fast-track construction all require an
attorney who appreciates these, and other, construction distinctions.
By
seeking legal advice before the contract is signed and before the job
begins, all parties can save a lot of time, money, and headaches.
Pre-construction legal review can help avoid many of the pitfalls and
problems that often can come at the end of a job.
Construction
Mediation, Arbitration and Litigation
Inevitably
construction disputes will require outside legal involvement.
We represent various parties in both residential and commercial
construction. The case may
involve relatively informal mediation, or formal arbitration and litigation.
We can assist you in all types of construction cases, including
breach of contract, negligent construction, breach of warranty, failure to
pay, claims of lien, payment bonds, design defects and construction delay
claims.
Construction
litigation often requires a great deal of time and energy on the front-end
of litigation to review the voluminous construction documents and
specifications before a proper analysis of the case can be made.
Even after that review by an attorney, often with construction
disputes there are not two sides of the coin, but several, because various
trades, professions and suppliers may all have conflicting versions of
events and distinct interests. As
attorneys and counselors, we will do our best to investigate the matter
thoroughly and give an honest and fair assessment of the case.
