Dispute Resolution
Construction litigation is often a costly and time-consuming process for everyone involved. However, many disputes arising out of construction can be solved by other means. In addition to construction contract drafting and litigation, our attorneys are able to assist contractors, subcontractors, or individuals with drafting demand letters, or even filing a mechanics lien.
Additionally, some construction disputes are subject to clauses that allow the parties to pursue arbitration as a means of alternative dispute resolution. Construction arbitration is an informal process in which the parties to the dispute make their arguments to an arbitrator, who makes a ruling regarding the dispute that is binding in most instances.
