The construction industry is a vital part of North Carolina’s vibrant, growing economy. With the state poised to welcome over a million new citizens by 2030, the demand for on-time, under-budget, high-quality construction has never been stronger. But in light of global supply-chain disruptions, a shortage of skilled trade labor, and other post-pandemic challenges, the risks confronting industry stakeholders have never been greater.
From initial project concept through final completion and beyond, Poyner Spruill’s construction lawyers work with their clients to navigate and overcome these risks. We represent developers, public and private owners, general contractors, subcontractors, suppliers, sureties, lenders, architects, and engineers in all facets of construction law. Our services include the drafting and negotiation of design-bid-build, design-build, and construction management at-risk contracts; counseling clients throughout a construction project; and the resolution of claims via negotiation, mediation, arbitration, litigation, and appeals. The firm has prosecuted and defended multi-million-dollar delay and defect claims on commercial and public works projects; represented contractors and designers before licensing boards; and defended against OSHA citations, among other engagements.
