Insurance plays a critical role in managing risks in construction projects. However, disputes often arise over the scope of coverage, claim denials, or delayed payments. Our attorneys have extensive experience resolving insurance coverage disputes and will aggressively advocate for your rights against insurance companies.

Mechanic’s Lien & Bond Claims

Mechanic’s liens and bond claims are powerful tools for contractors, subcontractors, and suppliers to ensure payment for their services. However, navigating the process can be complex and challenging. Our team has extensive experience in filing mechanic’s liens and bond claims, as well as defending against them.

Our attorneys have extensive experience in handling scope of work disputes. We will carefully review your contract, assess the situation, and provide clear, practical advice on how to best protect your interests.

These disputes can have significant implications on the timeline and budget of your construction project. Our team has successfully represented clients in supplier disputes, working diligently to resolve issues promptly and minimize disruption to your project.
