Andrew Greene is the former chair of Perkins Coie's nationally recognized Construction Law practice. As part of his practice, Andrew assists public and private clients with their construction and development-related legal needs, leading complex transactions and disputes. Andrew has previously been recognized as the "Construction Law Lawyer of the Year" for Washington by The Best Lawyers in America.

Andrew drafts and negotiates construction, design, management, and procurement agreements of all sizes, from under $1,000,000 to more than $500 million. He has significant experience with all of the major project delivery methods, including design-build, engineer-procure-construct (EPC), construction manager at risk (CMAR), general contractor/construction manager (GC/CM), and integrated project delivery, among others. He has worked on projects throughout North and South America, as well as in Europe, the Middle East, Africa, India, and Southeast Asia, with matters ranging from tidal energy in the Admiralty Inlet to road construction in South Sudan.

Andrew also helps clients resolve construction and development-related disputes. During his career, he has spent several months in trial, trying cases in state and federal courts and in arbitration, and has successfully resolved multiple disputes with claimed damages exceeding $100 million.

Andrew's clients include energy producers, universities, school districts, airports, maritime ports, hospitals, professional sports teams, major corporations, private developers, and luxury homebuilders and owners. His project experience has included office buildings (including several corporate headquarters), mixed-use, retail, manufacturing (including "clean rooms"), agricultural, water and wastewater, medical, schools, residential (including luxury homes and student housing), parks, hotels, transportation (roads, light rail, and tunnel), and energy (nuclear, natural gas, solar, wind and tidal). Andrew also regularly counsels clients on construction, procurement (including bid protest), prevailing wage, and public law issues.
