Our lawyers are
experienced in representing individual design professionals and
design professional firms. Our attorneys have defended numerous
liability claims against various design professionals. The cases
have ranged literally from a home owner who was upset with the
design of a deck attached to their house to multi-million dollar
delay and extra claims on highly complex projects.
The nature of the projects involved in our cases has been
similarly varied. We have handled design liability cases on single
home projects, track development housing, garden apartments, and
high rise multifamily construction. We are experienced in defending
claims brought by condominium unit owners’ associations. Similarly,
we have defended claims involving office buildings, jails, road
design and construction, bridge design and construction, schools,
and places of worship. We also have a breadth of experience in
representing different disciplines of design professionals, from
architects to land surveyors, from civil engineers to mechanical,
electrical, and plumbing construction issues.
This liability defense experience has translated in to a solid
understanding of the business challenges and opportunities faced by
the design professional community. As such, we have a growing
practice of representing design professional firms in other matters,
such as creation of corporations, partnerships, and limited
liability companies. We have drafted, reviewed and negotiated
countless contracts involving design professionals. Finally, we have
represented clients addressing issues of corporate structure and
business succession. From the beginning of the design professional
firm through the life of the firm, we are able to assist our clients
achieve their goals by minimizing their risks and potential
liabilities, and by aggressively defending to liability claims when
they do arise.
