About
Provided by Much Shelist, P.C.
The Construction practice at Much is a go-to resource for local, regional, national, and international clients involved in the complex construction and design sectors. Clients include Fortune 500 companies, ENR-listed contractors and design professionals, and middle-market companies. We have a significant transactional practice, as well as robust litigation and alternative dispute resolution capabilities, with experience in design- and construction-defect claims, scheduling delay and disruption claims, and other types of claims. In a recent two-year period, we advised clients on design and construction contracts representing projects valued at over US$3.5 billion in construction costs.
Much is one of the few Chicago law firms with experienced construction attorneys who also have substantial, hands-on training in the architectural and engineering professions. Clients benefit from the deep knowledge of a construction boutique coupled with the range and resources of a full-service business law firm. Members of the Construction group regularly collaborate with attorneys from across the firm to advise design and construction industry clients on a full range of issues, including construction law matters, licensing issues, M&A due diligence, bankruptcy, real estate development, construction lending, labor and employment, construction insurance and environmental matters. We bring a 360-degree view to client matters that sets us apart from our competitors.
