Construction Contracts
The contract is the most important tool you have at the beginning of a project. We work with you to draft, review, and negotiate agreements that clearly define responsibilities and protect your financial interests. Every deal is different, and we tailor our support to meet your specific needs.
We handle construction contracts such as:
- AIA agreements
- Subcontracts and vendor agreements
- Design-build and cost-plus contracts
- Lump sum contracts
We also help you include or refine key clauses, including:
- Payment terms
- Indemnity and insurance provisions
- Delay and change order procedures
- Dispute resolution mechanisms
When your contract is built right, you’re better positioned to avoid costly problems down the line.
Risk Management for Construction Projects
Legal risk is part of every construction project, but we help you take proactive steps to reduce exposure. Whether you’re launching a new project or scaling operations, we work with you to assess potential legal vulnerabilities. Our focus is on keeping your job running smoothly.
We advise on licensing, lien rights, safety compliance, and project documentation practices to help you stay in control. Good legal planning gives you the confidence to make informed decisions—and the backup you need if something goes wrong.
Resolving Construction Disputes
Even with a solid contract, disputes can still arise. When they do, we’re ready to help you resolve the issue quickly and effectively. Our firm represents clients in a variety of construction disputes, including:
- Payment claims and nonpayment
- Mechanic’s liens
- Construction delays and acceleration
- Defective work and warranty problems
- Breach of contract claims
We take the time to understand what’s really at the heart of the issue and work to resolve it through negotiation whenever possible. But if it needs to go further, we’re fully prepared to represent you in mediation, arbitration, or litigation in court.
Construction disputes can bring a project to a standstill. We help you find a path forward, whether that means enforcing your contract or defending against a claim that threatens your timeline or budget.
