Our attorneys stand ready to assist clients with all legal matters related to development and construction, from project planning to risk analysis to compliance with department of buildings regulations to surety bonds and construction insurance, to filing and discharging mechanic’s liens, to drafting and litigating contracts. We also work with our clients to resolve disputes using negotiation, litigation and alternative dispute resolution (ADR).
