Construction
Construction projects require timely, expert advice and a
comprehensive understanding of the construction industry. We have
extensive experience advising developers, governmental authorities,
investment funds and other procurers on a wide range of
construction matters, including high rise office buildings, mass
transit systems, energy production facilities, including
renewables, conventional and nuclear plants, and major
infrastructure projects including roads, hospitals, and sports
facilities. Our work includes advice in relation to design,
engineering and construction programs, project administration, risk
management, project financing as well as dispute resolution
advice.
For the successful procurement and completion of a construction
project, numerous conflicting interests and considerations must be
balanced between the developer, designer, contractor and interested
third parties, such as procurement methodology, balance of
risk allocation and time and budget constraints.
SNR Denton provides a full service construction practice.
This includes counseling with respect to labor agreements,
construction insurance policies, performance bonds and parent
company guarantees and representation in connection with regulatory
matters affecting the design, development and construction process
(including land use and zoning, environmental and building code
regulations, professional licensing issues and accessibility
laws).
We have considerable experience in drafting and preparing bid
documents, design and engineering contracts, construction
management contracts, facilities management contracts, operation
and maintenance contracts and general contracting documents
responsive to any desired construction methodology, subcontract and
supply agreements and design/build agreements.
SNR Denton also represents clients with respect to all types of
construction disputes on an international basis. Our lawyers have
represented owners, developers, lenders, contractors, engineers and
other construction industry participants in connection with
billions of dollars of contested disputes involving the full range
of construction issues in all forums, including courts of competent
jurisdiction, arbitrations, adjudications, mediations and other
alternative dispute resolution proceedings.
