We draft and negotiate all types of construction and design agreements, including architectural and engineering services agreements, to prioritize the protection of your rights and to limit your exposure. Our team advises on project structuring, leveraging experience in all delivery methods — from design-bid-build to integrated project delivery to build-to-suit leases – to create models that meet each client’s unique needs. If construction-related litigation or arbitration arise, we collaborate with our skilled construction litigation colleagues. We have deep experience working with teams on large public infrastructure procurement matters and nontraditional projects involving the design and installation of technology, robots and software. Our advice has saved clients billions of dollars in construction costs on projects nationwide.
