Terence Scanlan

For more than 20 years, Terry has represented commercial entities with an emphasis on engineering and architectural firms in complex civil litigation in state and federal courts. His litigation practice includes contract disputes, risk management, professional negligence, as well as wrongful death claims and catastrophic torts. Design professionals, consulting firms, local governmental entities and many others have learned to rely on Terry’s experience in mediation, litigation and trials.

With his deep knowledge of construction law, Terry has resolved issues between and on behalf of a wide variety of national and international design professionals. With a clear focus on helping businesses, individuals, regulators and government clients to articulate their expectations and their perspectives, he works hard to increase mutual understanding and the goodwill needed to keep a project moving.

In addition to his litigation practice, Terry is also a skillful mediator. He leverages his knowledge and experience to help parties discern a path to resolving their disputes on terms they can embrace as an alternative to the limited resolutions possible by way of a trial verdict. He understands that mediation allows for creative solutions to obtain results not possible in court and he works with parties to pursue those options.
