Construction Law and Litigation

At Bassey and Selesko, our construction law practice includes drafting both commercial and residential construction contracts, enforcing the lien and bond rights of contractors, and protecting the interests of homeowners and project owners.

Construction projects involve the interplay of owners, architects, engineers, builders, sub-contractors and suppliers. As a project moves toward a target completion date, problems often surface, resulting in disputes. A well-drafted contract, prepared at the beginning of the project with the help of an experienced construction attorney, will often save money and reduce conflict in the long run.

When litigation is necessary, experience in construction law and trade practices is essential. Our attorneys regularly litigate, arbitrate and mediate construction claims, and provide pre-litigation assistance during construction phase disputes.

Our legal services include assisting contractors and suppliers with the notices required to protect their construction lien and bond rights. In addition, we will train the client's staff to properly prepare the notices and to keep the records necessary to protect those rights.

When our clients face construction litigation, our goal is to help them resolve disputes in a timely manner and keep their construction project on schedule.

Committed to cost reduction, our attorneys recommend alternative dispute resolution, where appropriate.
