Litigation and Dispute Resolution

Disputes are part of doing business. How you respond makes the difference. We focus on securing practical outcomes that protect your position and keep your projects moving.

Litigation and Dispute Resolution

Disputes and litigation in major projects can range from a minor disagreement about a contractual clause all the way through to protracted litigation. We approach building and construction disputes with one prevailing principle in mind: driving the best outcome to protect your business’ interests. We want to see you back to business as usual as quickly as possible in any given circumstance. Sometimes that’s achieved through careful negotiations, but sometimes the only way to achieve it is through litigation. We’re as comfortable at the mediation table as we are in the courtroom.
