Construction Advice and LitigationProject Management and DisputesLozano Smith collaborates with public agencies, and their construction professionals to provide sound legal advice when a dispute arises during a project. By understanding the key factors of each dispute, our attorneys can efficiently advise clients on the immediate legal issues at hand, while at the same time preserving rights and evidence for later claims. We believe that open lines of communication between all members of the construction team and maintenance of good working relationships with contractors and consultants, while simultaneously protecting our client’s interests, can help prevent expensive litigation at the end of the project and help ensure timely completion of the project. Our Construction Advice and Litigation attorneys have handled disputes with contractors, subcontractors, construction managers, sureties, architects and engineers during projects. For those occasions when contractors refuse to perform work, we have significant experience helping agencies get the project back on track – usually by convincing the contractors to return to work, but if necessary by terminating the contractor and finishing the project with the surety or others. We also have experience in handling contractor defaults and bankruptcies, and we can get your project out of the bankruptcy court as quickly as possible.
