Construction
Legal issues can be encountered at any point in a construction project, starting from the bidding process through completion. We provide clients with practical insight and solutions for the legal challenges they face at every phase of the construction process. Our construction clients receive timely and practical guidance to resolve disputes so clients can focus on the development and construction projects, not on litigation. Porter Scott's construction attorneys have extensive experience representing both public and private clients in construction law matters - including successful handling of hundreds of multi-million dollar claims through resolution.
Our services include representing developers, general contractors, subcontractors, suppliers, owners and design professionals in the preparation, defense and prosecution of construction delay claims, acceleration claims, extra work claims, termination claims, construction defect claims, differing site condition claims and professional negligence claims and all other aspects of the construction process.

We also represent contractors, subcontractors, suppliers and owners on bond claims, mechanics liens and stop notices.
