Construction Litigation and Counseling

Construction Experience

Construction defects and property damage: We represent owners, developers, sponsors, general contractors, construction managers, subcontractors, engineers, architects and other design professionals in all aspects of construction-related litigation. Whether bringing or defending a claim as the general contractor on the project or the subcontractor hired for work such as installing decking or erecting scaffolding at the jobsite, we fight to protect your rights and reputation.

Multi-Party Litigation: We have extensive experience handling condominium construction defect cases with dozens of plaintiffs and defendants and are uniquely familiar with the challenges presented by multi-party litigation in the construction context. This helps us identify risks early to get our clients the best results. 

Regulatory compliance counseling: Our attorneys counsel clients on the broad range of state and federal regulatory issues impacting construction projects, including licensing requirements, EPA regulations, OSHA regulations, and regulations specific to federally funded construction.

Contract disputes: Our Construction team has the technical experience to troubleshoot issues that threaten construction and development projects, cost overruns, design or specification defects, including underfinanced and insolvent parties, change orders, changed conditions, and project delays. We also have decades of experience litigating contract disputes over insurance.

Why Choose LCBF

We offer an experienced defense team capable of handling all aspects of construction claims. We excel at identifying other potentially responsible parties and make quick and appropriate judgments about joining them. We effectively pursue contractual indemnity and additional insured claims that invariably arise in construction litigation. One of our main goals is to look for opportunities to achieve an early, efficient settlement of our clients’ disputes, often through alternative dispute resolution, sparing the client the substantial expense and disruption typical of construction litigation.

When early resolution cannot be achieved, our experienced attorneys are fully prepared to aggressively litigate and try complex, highly technical claims to a favorable conclusion in the federal and state trial and appellate courts.
