Construction Litigation

As land development continues to surge in Florida, construction-related disputes have become increasingly common. Whether on large-scale projects or smaller developments, conflicts often arise between landlords, site managers, contractors, tenants, employees, and subcontractors. With the complexities of local legal codes, Florida statutes, licensing requirements, labor laws, and more, even a simple dispute can quickly evolve into a complex and challenging legal process. To protect your interests, it’s crucial to consult an experienced construction lawyer as soon as a dispute arises.

If you're facing or anticipating a construction or property-related dispute, our team of skilled attorneys is ready to guide you through every stage of the process. From lien and warranty claims to bid disputes and contract negotiations, our firm offers comprehensive legal services to help you navigate your unique situation.

We have extensive experience representing clients in the following areas:

Mediation and Arbitration

We help you avoid courtroom battles by developing strategies for alternative dispute resolution.

Delay Claims

Warranties and Claims

Breaches of warranty can lead to significant liability. We offer guidance to address warranty issues from every angle.

Landlord and Tenant Law

Our attorneys assist both landlords and tenants in resolving disputes and protecting their legal rights.

Labor Litigation

Business Law

Whether you need to safeguard your business from future legal issues or address ongoing claims, we offer strategic advice to protect your assets.

Our attorneys are well-versed in all aspects of construction litigation, including:

Construction Liens

Contractors, subcontractors, and material suppliers may face situations where they aren't paid for services or materials. In Florida, construction liens can help secure delinquent payments. We assist in both filing and defending liens, providing a clear path to resolving payment issues without unnecessary court battles.

Lease Disputes

Disputes over commercial leases can involve a range of issues, from unpaid rent to unjustified claims from landlords. Whether you're a landlord or tenant, our firm can ensure your rights are defended, offering counsel to resolve lease conflicts efficiently.

Contract Law

Construction contracts are complex and critical to project success. Whether you need help drafting or reviewing contracts, or if you're facing a breach of contract, our attorneys will ensure that your agreements are airtight and enforceable.

Labor Law

Construction projects often involve complex labor law issues. Our firm can guide you through employment disputes, wage and hour claims, and other labor-related matters to ensure compliance with both state and federal regulations.

Construction Accidents

Injuries on construction sites are all too common. If you’re dealing with an accident claim, whether as an injured worker or an employer defending against a wrongful claim, our attorneys will fight for the best possible outcome.

Mediation and Arbitration

Court cases can be costly and time-consuming. Through mediation and arbitration, we help construction businesses resolve disputes outside of the courtroom, saving time and reducing expenses. Our skilled attorneys facilitate these processes to help you reach a fair resolution without the need for prolonged litigation.
