By James Woods
Managing Partner

Construction projects are multi-faceted undertakings that involve a complicated network of parties. The layers of contracts and agreements between these parties are often equally complex. Disputes can come up at any phase of a construction project, from disputes while a contract is being drafted at the start to fundamental disputes over performance after the entire project is completed.

In order for a dispute to be resolved in a timely manner, it is important to present information in a manner that is explicit, clear-cut, and objective.
