settle disputes,
and, when
necessary, win
legal battles.
Our goal is to
assist our
clients in
carrying out
successful
projects from

by resolving
issues as they
arise, instead
of through
costly and time
consuming legal
proceedings
after the
project has been
completed. We
are privileged
to represent
many of the
construction
industry’s most
successful
contractors and
other
construction
professionals as
well as serve as

the entire
spectrum of
legal issues
facing
Government
contractors
today. We
counsel our
Government
contractor
clients in all
aspects of doing
business with
federal, state
and local
governments,
including
business
planning,
proposal
preparation, bid
protests,
contract
negotiation and
administration,
claims
preparation and
litigation and
corporate ethics
and compliance.
Peckar &
Abramson also

relations and
employment law
services to

small
family-owned

labor relations
and employment
group shares the
firm’s
long-standing
commitment to
high quality
professional
service by
providing
clients with a
comprehensive
package of
employment and
labor relations
services and
expertise that
extends beyond
traditional
litigation. Our
attorneys help
clients create a
productive and
safe workplace
through
preventive
measures,

dispute
resolution.
