About

Provided by GrayRobinson, PA

The GrayRobinson construction law team provides end-to-end legal support for construction projects across Florida, representing clients in both public and private sectors. Our team includes attorneys board-certified in Construction Law by The Florida Bar and brings over two centuries of combined experience advising clients through all phases of a project—from permitting and contract negotiation to litigation and legislative advocacy.

We assist with a broad range of issues, including regulatory compliance, land use and permitting, project financing, and risk management. Our work spans infrastructure, residential, commercial, industrial, and specialized projects. We’ve represented clients in hundreds of disputes involving substantial claims and regularly advise on P3 frameworks, construction defects, lien enforcement, bond claims, and contract administration.

Our litigators work closely with GrayRobinson’s appellate and trial support team—including former appellate judges and justices—to manage disputes in state and federal courts. We also maintain a strong government affairs presence, shaping policy and reforms affecting construction, including statutes of limitations, sovereign immunity protections, and repeal of Florida’s construction services sales tax.

Our team integrates legal strategy with practical construction insight, enabling clients to identify risks early, resolve challenges efficiently, and keep projects on track from pre-construction to post-completion.
