Stephen
A.
Stallings
is a
partner
and
has
over
17
years
of
construction
law
experience
in
the
representation
of
both
private
and
public
owners,
contractors,
subcontractors,
sureties,
and
developers
and
has
been
responsible
for
the
management
and
trial
and
arbitration
of
complex
matters
throughout
the
United
States
involving
claims
in
excess
of
$100
million.
His
experience
and
knowledge
of
construction
law
has
been
honed
from
a
wide
variety
of
projects,
such
as
the
construction
of
cable
television
systems,
hotels,
high-rise
office
and
residential
buildings,
transportation
facilities
and
the
decommissioning
of a
nuclear
power
plant.
Besides
his
litigation
practice,
he
also
has
extensive
experience
with
the
negotiation
and
drafting
of
contracts
and
other
documents
commonly
associated
with
construction
projects.
Mr.
Stallings’
success
in
the
representation
of
contractors
is
due,
in
part,
to
his
practice
of
supporting
his
clients
during
the
entire
construction
process
--
from
the
development
of
construction
documents
through
a
project’s
conclusion
--
as
the
key
to
avoiding
litigation
and
achieving
the
best
overall
results.
Recognizing
that
problems
are
inherent
in
any
construction
project,
he
counsels
clients
so
that
they
achieve
the
maximum
returns
at
the
lowest
possible
cost.
As
not
all
construction
problems
and
disputes
can
be
resolved
amicably,
Mr.
Stallings’
involvement
with
a
project
coupled
with
his
knowledge
of
the
issues
that
face
the
industry
and
his
experience
has
ensured
that
his
client’s
rights
are
protected
to
the
fullest
extent
possible.
Prior
to
joining
Peckar
&
Abramson,
he
was
a
partner
at
Sacks
Montgomery,
P.C.,
a
New
York
City
law
firm
specializing
in
construction
law
litigation.
Mr.
Stallings
is
admitted
to
practice
in
the
state
courts
of
New
York
and
Connecticut
along
with
the
federal
courts
for
the
Eastern
and
Southern
Districts
of
New
York,
the
District
of
Connecticut
and
the
Western
District
of
Michigan.
Mr.
Stallings
graduated
cum
laude
from
St.
John’s
School
of
Law
in
1989
where
he
was
a
member
of
the
St.
John’s
Law
Review.
He
received
his
Bachelor
of
Science
degree
in
economics
from
the
University
of
Kentucky
in
1980.
