Our attorneys have the skills necessary to assist construction industry clients through all phases of the construction law process. Our attorneys represent owners, developers, architects, engineers, general contractors, subcontractors and suppliers. This broad experience enables us to negotiate reasonable and fair contracts appropriately allocating risk to the party best able to mitigate and cover that risk. Over the years, we have developed contract forms suitable for various projects, whether traditional, design-build or engineer-procure-construct (“EPC”), and for small and large projects, commercial and residential. Our in-depth experience allows us to modify contracts to account for a particular client’s or project’s needs.
