Akerman's Florida Construction Practice encompasses both litigation and transactional matters, advising on many types of construction initiatives and infrastructure projects throughout Florida and around the world. We provide practical counsel on build and design contract formation and administration issues, as well as construction litigation, arbitration, and mediation services.
We are recognized for our experience in retail and hospitality, mixed-use and urban development projects, transportation, energy, public infrastructure, housing, and healthcare projects. Akerman has a great depth of experience in office, condominium, multifamily, and hospitality sectors, as well as extensive experience in single-family (high end, luxury) residential projects. Our construction practice works hand-in-hand with the firm's traditional real estate lawyers on issues such as land use, entitlements, zoning, purchase and sale, leasing, and financing in order to allow seamless results for clients. With the rise of international investments in many projects throughout South Florida, we have expanded our cross-border reach and have increased our representation of Latin American clientele.
Akerman's Construction Practice includes Board Certified and LEED accredited lawyers, former engineers, and a past president of the American College of Construction Lawyers, further cementing our status as one of the top construction law firms in the region and country.
