Construction Litigation
From large public works projects to residential housing, we represent general contractors, subcontractors and design professionals in negligence, strict liability and indemnity actions arising out of allegedly defective conditions.
The firm is particularly sensitive to litigation cost-control issues in these types of cases. We work in close partnership with the insurer or self-insured client to minimize costs and to maximize participation in defense costs by other carriers on the risk.
Successful cost control is achieved through aggressive tender efforts, early case analysis, careful discovery monitoring, efficient and appropriate use of experts, and aggressive pursuit of alternative dispute resolution such as Mediation when settlement is not possible. We do not hesitate to take cases to trial. Our results are outstanding and speak for themselves.
We have taken more complex construction cases to trial than any other firm in the southwest. Our success rate in these types of cases is unmatched by any other firm.
