How we serve construction leaders

Construction in the Pacific Northwest is known for its energy, innovation—and steep price tags. We are counsel of choice for many of our region’s unique breed of contractors, subcontractors, property owners, and design professionals.

Schwabe’s industry team collaborates like a top-performing, right-sized crew to help keep projects on schedule and competitive‎. Whether you need a contract reviewed, a new employee handbook, counsel on organized labor relations, advice on safety issues, help resolving disputes, or support with business succession planning, a single call can connect you to the resources to get it done.

We don’t like claims or litigation any more than you do. But when necessary, our veteran trial lawyers act decisively and effectively in the claims environment. We handle construction disputes, including:

  • Bid protests
  • Breach of contract
  • Contract termination
  • Delay and impact
  • Design professional liability
  • Employment claims
