With firsthand industry experience, our attorneys help clients evaluate and mitigate risk on construction contracts from start to finish. While we have successfully handled many large and complex construction disputes in court and alternative dispute resolution forums, we have been equally successful in helping our clients avoid disputes by minimizing the risk of costly mistakes and litigation throughout a project. We help businesses navigate a full range of complex contract provisions and issues, including risk allocation, insurance, claims avoidance, compliance, project documentation, contract changes, differing site conditions, delays, scheduling, acceleration, terminations, and defective design and workmanship claims.
