Of Services
We represent owners, developers, contractors, subcontractors, suppliers, architects, engineers, and design professionals in complex construction litigation involving breach of contract, construction defects, delays, extra work claims, payment disputes, defective workmanship, project impacts, professional liability, and other construction-related claims.
We help contractors, subcontractors, suppliers, and other construction professionals recover amounts owed efficiently while protecting their contractual and statutory rights.
Our attorneys regularly handle construction collections involving unpaid invoices, retainage, change orders, breach of contract claims, demand letters, negotiated payment resolutions, and judgment enforcement. We also advise clients on recording, perfecting, enforcing, and defending mechanics’ liens, including foreclosure actions, lien priority disputes, and motions to dissolve or discharge liens under Massachusetts and New Hampshire law.
Our attorneys advise construction companies on commercial transactions, corporate governance, business formation, mergers and acquisitions, contract negotiations, and other strategic business matters that support long-term growth.
When construction issues arise during acquisitions, financing transactions, or real estate development, we collaborate closely with our Corporate and Commercial Real Estate teams to help clients identify and manage legal risk before deals close.
We represent homeowners, family offices, trustees, and family-owned LLCs undertaking high-value residential construction, additions, renovations, and estate properties.
Working closely with our Trusts & Estates attorneys, we help clients negotiate construction agreements, manage contractor relationships, address project disputes, and protect valuable real estate assets. When issues arise involving defective construction, delays, cost overruns, or payment disputes, we provide practical guidance designed to preserve both the project and the investment.
Working alongside our Environmental & Land Use and Real Estate attorneys, we help clients address permitting issues, regulatory approvals, zoning matters, environmental compliance, due diligence, and other legal issues affecting project development and completion.
In collaboration with our Labor & Employment attorneys, we advise clients on workforce management, employment agreements, wage and hour compliance, workplace policies, independent contractor issues, restrictive covenants, and employment disputes affecting construction businesses.
Construction disputes often involve complex insurance and risk allocation issues. Working closely with our Insurance Litigation team, we help clients evaluate coverage, enforce insurance obligations, pursue indemnification rights, and resolve disputes involving commercial general liability policies, builders’ risk insurance, professional liability coverage, additional insured provisions, and contractual risk transfer obligations.
