I seek to understand the concerns and positions of every party to a dispute, what each one wants, and what they actually need. Above all, My duty is to your clients, keeping them aware of the requirements laws and regulations make on them.

Your clients:

Owners and Developers

Owners come from all walks of life, and their projects are equally varied. They might need assistance with a single-family home or a multi-family and mixed-use development, or even a big public infrastructure project. They might be building a boutique restaurant or a luxury hotel. No matter who they are or what they are building, your clients want quality work at a reasonable price. That is exactly what I provide.

We help them by crafting contracts that are better at avoiding disputes later. If a dispute does arise, we deal with it quickly, efficiently and in a way which minimizes bad feelings on all sides.
