Construction Advice and Litigation

Lozano Smith's Construction Advice and Litigation attorneys provide timely and cost-sensitive legal services related to all kinds of public works construction projects. We assist clients with project planning, contract language, and bid issues at the beginning of a project; project management and change orders during a project; and completion, payment, claims and litigation at project closeout. Our dispute resolution and litigation expertise spans all disputes, whether standard (extra work, delay and stop notice claims) or complex (contractor defaults, surety disputes and false claims). We have successfully represented clients in construction consultant disputes, as well as and construction defect litigation.

Since the firm's inception 20 years ago Lozano Smith has advised and represented public entities in California on virtually all aspects of public works construction. We adhere to a philosophy of helping our clients avoid time consuming delays and costs by proactively identifying and avoiding potential claims whenever possible, yet simultaneously protecting the district's interests and preparing for litigation in the event disputes cannot be resolved.
