Construction projects are capital-intensive, deadline-driven, and layered with contractual risk. A single drafting oversight, procurement misstep, or payment delay can expose contractors, developers, and owners to significant financial loss. Construction margins are tight. Risk compounds fast.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

Our Construction Law team represents clients across Upstate New York and beyond in complex commercial construction matters. We advise from project inception through completion, drafting and negotiating contracts, guiding procurement strategy, and resolving disputes when projects do not proceed as planned.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

We regularly draft and negotiate AIA contracts, ConsensusDocs contracts, and custom-made contracts. We structure risk-transfer provisions, indemnification clauses, and payment protections with the understanding that construction disputes are often won or lost on contract language.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

When projects encounter delays, scope changes, cost overruns, nonpayment, or design conflicts, we move quickly to preserve rights and protect leverage. Our attorneys represent clients in mediation, arbitration, litigation, and bid protests, bringing both courtroom experience and deep industry familiarity in construction litigation matters. We regularly advise clients on compliance with New York Lien Law and related statutory notice and filing requirements.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

We approach construction matters with a project mindset. That means understanding timelines, sequencing, financing structures, and field realities – not just contract clauses. Our advice is built to function in live projects, not just in court.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

Our experience includes advising institutional owners, commercial developers, construction management firms, general contractors, subcontractors, and suppliers on large-scale capital improvement and urban redevelopment projects. We understand the operational realities of significant construction undertakings because we have advised clients directly through active project execution.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

Our attorneys maintain active leadership roles in construction industry organizations, including the Construction Exchange of Buffalo and Western New York, the Construction Financial Management Association, and the Subcontractors Association of Western New York, which keeps us closely aligned with the financial and operational realities of the industry.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n
