Representation For Development And Construction Matters
Home, office and retail construction in Louisiana continues apace. At Sher Garner Cahill Richter Klein & Hilbert, L.L.C., we have spent years representing residential and commercial owners, developers and contractors in matters concerning real estate development and construction.
We have acquired an in-depth appreciation of the issues that typically arise in real estate development and construction-related disputes, as well as a deep understanding of the related facts and law.
Our Louisiana real estate development attorneys will advocate for your interests, whether you need legal advice or representation in negotiations or in court.
Real Estate Litigation
Our lawyers have litigated claims in both courts and arbitrations involving compensation for “extra work,” defective construction, defective building products, statutory and contractual warranty claims, delay damages, mechanic’s liens, insurance issues and indemnification.
In doing so, we have established relationships with individuals and firms that assist its attorneys, where necessary, as expert witnesses.
Litigation Alternatives
Litigation is not always the best solution to a real estate or construction dispute. Sher Garner Cahill Richter Klein & Hilbert, L.L.C., is well-versed in alternative dispute resolution methods, including arbitration, which may yield a more favorable result.
This is especially true in construction-related matters, including instances in the contract that do not specifically provide for arbitration.
Because such disputes typically involve alleged deficiencies with more than one trade’s work, and because the work of one trade often impacts the quality and timing of another trade’s work, an arbitrator with specialized knowledge can help to reduce the time spent in trial and the cost associated with expert witnesses.
Retain our attorneys, and we will recommend that the appropriate alternative dispute mechanisms be employed where appropriate and in your best interests.
