Construction

Babst Calland's Construction Group has handled a broad range of matters relating to all aspects of the construction industry, including corporate structuring, joint ventures, contract review, drafting and negotiation across multiple states, real estate acquisition, land use and zoning issues, project financing, and mergers and acquisitions. Our attorneys also advise clients on issues affecting construction projects when a project entity files for bankruptcy.

We have represented clients in construction litigation in state and federal courts and before arbitration panels and mediators in the tri-state region (Pennsylvania, Ohio, and West Virginia) and nationwide. Our attorneys have litigated bid disputes, delay and inefficiency claims, unforeseen conditions claims, design and construction deficiency claims, bond and lien disputes, prompt payment claims and complex construction technology matters.

Our employment and labor attorneys have negotiated labor agreements, resolved disputes under the National Labor Relations Act, obtained injunctions to bar mass picketing, litigated prevailing wage rate disputes and addressed OSHA complaints.

Babst Calland also represents parties throughout the oil and gas industry. Our construction attorneys regularly advise clients on temporary construction easements, multi-state statutory compliance, mechanics’ liens, construction contracts, natural gas gathering and transmission lines, pipeline incidents, accident response and related claims.
