Experienced Construction Law Firm

Construction law covers all legal issues regarding the construction process from acquiring land and financing a project to post-construction dispute resolution. This includes a wide scope of matters, such as building contracts, construction and builders’ liens, bonds and sureties, tendering, and construction claims, which pertain to all parties in the construction industry, including architects, subcontractors, general contractors, material suppliers, builders, designers, developers, owners, planners, engineers, and financial institutions.

​

Construction law includes improvements of all sizes and complexity from basic, residential work, to enormous, complex projects of hydroelectric impoundment and power generation, city planning, and mass transportation. While construction law cuts across a broad spectrum of laws, it is still closely related to many of the traditionally recognized principals and doctrines of the law, including real property, contracts, torts, business organizations, labor, tax, and (possibly) conflicts of laws.

Contract terms and definitions in construction documents are very important because they eliminate ambiguity and misunderstanding. They also govern the specific understanding and agreement of the parties to the contract and provide the framework for interpretation and resolution of construction contract claims.

​

Construction law also includes claims of construction defects, which typically consist of a flaw in the design, construction, or materials used in private or public buildings. Some construction defects could lead to personal injury or death. If you are a contractor, construction company, owner, developer, or insurer who is dealing with a construction defect claim, our construction lawyers can help.
