We have broad experience in successfully litigating claims arising from construction.
Lee Smart attorneys have represented general contractors, specialty subcontractors, construction managers, design professionals, project developers, and owners. We’ve defended hundreds of claims, including construction site injuries, death, property damage, and economic loss. These claims have involved complex architectural, engineering, product design, and human factor issues. We take the initiative early to determine all potentially liable parties, retain appropriate experts, evaluate risk-shifting among parties, and explore the use of alternative dispute resolution.
