Construction Defects

Construction defect litigation has been a cornerstone of MMP&S since the firm’s inception. Our attorneys have significant experience representing owners, developers, general contractors, construction managers, sub-contractors, suppliers and design professionals in claims arising out of construction defects, fee dispute and delays. We defend all manner of construction claims from the simple to the complex; from those involving single family homes to high-rise commercial and residential buildings, mixed-use complexes, schools, museums, arenas and other public facilities.

Our attorneys’ industry knowledge, experience and technical sophistication allow us to efficiently review and analyze project files, identify key issues from the outset of the representation and develop effective litigation strategies. With proficiency in contract and insurance coverage law, we determine all available avenues for risk transfer based on contractual indemnity provisions, additional insured status and common law doctrines.

Our construction attorneys are adept at defending claims in any forum, whether pre-claim negotiations, private mediation, binding arbitration, state or federal trial courts and appellate courts.
