Experienced And Comprehensive Counsel For Commercial Property Development
Commercial developers face a broad range of legal challenges, from obtaining financing to drafting contracts to keeping the project moving on time and within budget. Legal counsel is essential for avoiding pitfalls and helping the project proceed in a smooth and efficient manner.
At Long & Robinson, LLC, we offer full-service construction law counsel. We provide comprehensive guidance for commercial developers in the broad array of legal challenges they face. Contact our office today for help with issues such as:
- Construction project dispute resolution: We assist clients with enforcing their contractual rights, and we are intimately familiar with AIA, ConsensusDocs and other contract forms.
- Negotiating, drafting and reviewing contracts: Solid contracts are a key ingredient for any commercial project, and a well-drafted contract can make the difference between a successful project and a disastrous one.
- Mechanics’ liens and bond claims: We protect the financial rights of developers with regard to liens and bonds.
We also represent self-insured developers in defending against construction defect claims, and we serve as supervising counsel for developers with claim defense coverage through their insurance companies.
Condominium ADR Experience
Many condo contracts use arbitration to resolve disputes. Our team reviews arbitration clauses in condo contracts and declarations and explains how they affect leverage, cost and timing. Our team prepares strong arbitration submissions that fit condo-specific issues such as turnover timing and repair scope.
Condominium Contract, Defect And Insurance Claims
Disputes over contracts, defects and insurance can threaten sales, refinancing and occupancy. Our team represents developers, contractors and other project parties in negotiations, litigation and ADR. Our experienced attorneys also help clients give timely insurance notice, tender additional-insured claims and build a clear plan to resolve defect issues without stalling the project.
Condominium Assessments, Liens And Garnishment
Payment disputes in condo projects can block unit closings and strain association operations. Our team pursues equitable garnishment, mechanic’s lien strategies and other collection actions to recover unpaid contract balances or delinquent assessments. Quick action often protects your position and helps the project move toward resolution.
