Construction Claims & Disputes
At every stage of the project delivery process, clients need a trusted advisor to assist in navigating and mitigating construction risks. When unavoidable disputes arise, clients also need zealous and experienced attorneys to advocate on their behalf.
HOW WE HELP
Few law firms in the country can match our preeminent national construction practice, which includes representation on some of the largest and high-profile projects in the United States and internationally. We represent clients on a broad range of claims and disputes, including those involving delay and disruption, cost overruns, defective work, errors and omissions, non-payment, regulatory and code violations, and mechanic’s lien, stop payment notice and payment and performance bond claims and disputes.
We have a successful and long track record of litigating claims and disputes involving private and public projects in federal and state courts. When unavoidable claims and disputes arise, we often implement creative alternative dispute resolution procedures to efficiently resolve claims and disputes based on practical business and legal advice.
We are particularly strong in handling large, complex construction disputes on a wide variety of projects, such as heavy civil and industrial facilities, power plants, pipelines, sports stadiums, airports, shipping ports, transportation and infrastructure, and wastewater treatment facilities. We represent public and private owners, as well as contractors, architects, engineers, design-builders, and subcontractors.
Our national construction group understands the significant regulatory, technical, and business issues involved on construction projects. We have relationships with many of the leading expert witnesses and consultants in the United States and globally, allowing us to assemble a strong team to represent our clients’ interests. Our clients rely on us for premium, timely, and cutting-edge solutions to help navigate problems and efficiently plan, prepare, and manage claims and disputes through resolution.
Our team taps into the resources and knowledge of our attorneys across the firm, including from our real estate, environmental, corporate, labor and employment, and government contracts groups.
