The Construction Law Practice at Lindabury, McCormick, Estabrook & Cooper has some of the leading construction attorneys in New Jersey. We also have a number of attorneys that are nationally recognized for their capabilities and knowledge. We have represented clients in some of the largest construction disputes in the state and have established some of the leading reported case law on issues arising out of public contract law.
Lindabury provides the full scope of legal services to businesses and other organizations in the construction industry—everything from the inception of the projects, including negotiation with the design team, to final wrap up of the project, resulting in acceptance and final payment to architects, engineers and contractors. We also provide representation in all venues for disputes arising out of projects, including representation in arbitration and mediation.
We represent a broad range of clients in all areas of construction law, including trade associations, owners, contractors, vendors, sureties and insurance companies. We are general counsel to the Mechanical Contractors Association of New Jersey and are recognized as special counsel for the Mechanical Contractors Association of America. We are also counsel to the New Jersey Chapter of the American Subcontractors Association. Additionally, we have represented some of the major institutional owners and sureties and have a working familiarity with all areas and disciplines involved in the construction process for both public and private projects.
Our Construction Law attorneys have been involved in a great variety of projects, extending as high as $50 million. We have provided extensive representation of entities in public construction projects, including construction of numerous projects under the Education Facilities Financing Act and the oversight of the New Jersey Schools Construction Corporation.
We are particularly well-suited for representation in school construction projects because of our extensive representation of school boards. We have represented several dozen school boards across New Jersey and have a deep knowledge of the administrative regulations and state and federal law governing their operations.
