Perkins Coie is a nationally recognized leader in construction law. The attorneys represent public and private owners, design professionals, contractors and suppliers during all stages of construction—from project conception and funding through design, procurement and construction, as well as in dispute resolution.

Perkins Coie attorneys have extensive experience in preparing and negotiating claims/requests for equitable adjustment in contract price and contract time on private and public projects. Since, in addition to technical issues, many claims involve allegations of delay and/or inefficiency and disruption, our experience in Critical Path Method (CPM) schedule analysis and in admissible damages calculations equip us to assist clients in developing strategies to resolve claims of every variety.
