To better manage the many problems and risks associated with a construction project, Peckar & Abramson offers its clients a unique resource: our Construction Project Support Program.™ Unlike traditional construction client/attorney relationships, where lawyers are brought in to solve problems that have already escalated into major disputes or litigation, our Project Support Program makes the firm’s experience and expertise available to clients in an organized, timely fashion to solve problems and resolve disputes before a crisis occurs.

Our attorneys work behind the scenes with a client’s project managers to provide an objective and supportive understanding of project events as they occur. Through regularly scheduled meetings with the project management team, a program of internal communications and ongoing document review, our attorneys provide the following services:

Identify actual and potential problems and strategize solutions;
Maintain contractual compliance;
Reduce and avoid confrontational relationships with other project participants; and
Recommend methods to resolve problems and break deadlocks
