CONSTRUCTION DISPUTES
Over the years we have acted as trusted advisors to developers, contractors, engineers, architects, and project managers on all manner of construction disputes and construction related litigation. We have significant experience with mechanics liens matters, expropriations, contract disputes, building defect issues, and crisis management.
​
We have a solid reputation in the Courtroom and in dealing with complicated construction issues and with expert witness testimony. Our past cases have seen us represent clients on a range of matters from small residential building disputes to multi-million-dollar construction projects. On occasion we have been fortunate enough to challenge established legal principles in construction law and change the law for the better (see, Newfoundland Supreme Court Decision in Hickeys Building Supplies Limited vs. Sheppard).
​
For our commercial and industrial developer clients, we routinely work side by side with in-house counsel and welcome the opportunity to collaborate with our in-house colleagues on all manner of construction issues and disputes.
