Construction Law
Overview
The Construction Law Group is comprised of elite trial lawyers who know the ins and outs of the industry giving us a distinct advantage over our opponents. Our lawyers are well versed in the intricate relationships among the various parties to a construction project, the complicated network of contract documents, and the construction process itself.
The Construction Law Group represents many local, regional, national, and international design professionals, as well as owners, contractors, subcontractors, and insurers in a myriad of construction disputes. Our construction attorneys handle all types of construction-related disputes, from job site injuries to mechanics liens to trying cases involving multimillion-dollar delay and interference claims.
While we treat all cases as if they are going to trial, we have taken an active lead in the use of alternative dispute resolution when appropriate. Our lawyers regularly serve as mediators in the resolution of construction-related disputes. We have represented all facets of the construction industry in the dispute resolution process throughout the Midwest. The firm’s involvement in the appellate process significantly impacted the way the construction industry in Missouri and Illinois operates. The group’s experience has influenced the development of the law on economic losses, construction experts, the statute of repose, and the validity of contracts.
Our lawyers are frequent speakers on topics of interest to both the legal profession and the industry. Our lawyers also participate in a periodic seminar providing information for those in the industry.
