I am an innovative thinking construction attorney focusing on, of course, innovative business arrangements. I practice construction law throughout Florida. I represent general contractors, subcontractors, design professionals, developers, associations, suppliers, sureties, and owners in a myriad of construction matters including, without limitation, construction/design defect claims, schedule-based claims (including inefficiency, lost productivity, and acceleration claims), bid protests, payment disputes, lien and bond claims, liability and property insurance issues, and a host of other issues that affect the construction industry. I prepare and negotiate construction contracts for clients utilizing AIA, EJCDC, and ConsensusDocs industry form documents, as well as contracts that are not based on an industry form document.
I also blog about all aspects of construction law and government contracting at www.floridaconstructionlegalupdates.com and issues pertaining to Florida appellate, evidentiary, and trial perspectives at www.provemyfloridacase.com. Check it out!
