How We Are Different We know construction & business law from the inside out. Our business law, construction law and construction operations are led by a former judge, who has been a business owner, executive, contractor, project manager, and general counsel to national and international firms. This broad depth of knowledge enables us to quickly find far more client-friendly solutions, because we can analyze business issues and construction issues from a client perspective. A major benefit to you is that we do not tell you what you cannot do and stop there & we develop practical, legal, and operational solutions that provide legal protections while balancing the requirements of the project, the law, the client, and the bottom line.
