The Mintz Construction Law attorneys are adept in both the public and private sectors and have a track record of smoothly and cost-effectively navigating large, complex projects to completion. Because the team represents owners, construction managers, design professionals, and contractors, we have a 360-degree vantage point to better anticipate expectations and identify potential issues, roadblocks, and solutions. We also have broad project experience in the transportation, multifamily, industrial, educational, retail, non-profit, hospital, and technology sectors. Litigation, arbitration, and alternative dispute resolution form a significant part of our practice. We also have extensive experience in drafting and negotiating all types of construction contracts, including design/build, fast-track, construction management, EPC, and more conventional owner/contractor and owner/ architect relationships. We regularly provide advice regarding public bidding and procurement issues. Our experience in navigating disputes allows us to provide advice in crafting contracts to avoid pitfalls and future conflicts that can cripple, what might otherwise be, successful projects. Our attorneys hold or have held leadership positions in local and national construction industry groups, including the ABA Forum on Construction Law, the world’s largest organization of construction lawyers, and the Association of General Contractors of Massachusetts.
