Weidenbaum & Harari, LLP has successfully
litigated, arbitrated and negotiated on behalf of numerous
construction suppliers and contractors. The construction
practice group provides cost-effective, aggressive, and
quality representation to the construction industry for
private, public, state and federal jobs throughout New
York and New Jersey, including contractors, material suppliers,
equipment companies, architects and engineers.
We are aware of the problems caused by uncollected
debt throughout the construction industry. Often the
failure of one party in the chain to receive money affects
every other party in the construction chain.
Our firm has established itself in the legal field of
construction collections, representing a number of large
and small suppliers and subcontractors in their collection
efforts. Many in the construction industry may not be
aware of the number of remedies that may be available
to them, from the filing of Mechanic's Liens to the
filing of claims on Labor & Material Payment Bonds,
to direct written demands for payment, as well as civil
litigation.
We are able to achieve our high degree of success with
hands-on contact from our able team of attorneys. Additionally,
we have developed a proprietary computer system to streamline
the management of this particular subset of commercial
collections in order to provide the most value to our
clients.
The firm has broad experience in all phases of construction
law. We represent developers, contractors, subcontractors,
suppliers, and others involved in both public and private
construction projects in the drafting and negotiation
of contracts. We also handle the resolution of issues
that arise during construction, and mediate, arbitrate,
and litigate disputes.
The construction practice group is prepared to address
legal issues which frequently arise in construction-related
matters, including construction industry litigation,
arbitration, claims preparation, mechanic's lien recordation
and enforcement, trust fund claims, bond claims, contract
drafting and review, labor issues, court of claims matters,
real estate and financing. The experience of the construction
practice group includes all aspects of a project, and
all phases of the construction process that are vital
to the successful outcome of any new project.
As the practice of construction law often requires
experience in other practice areas, the construction
practice group regularly exchanges information with
the litigation, corporate,
real estate, technology,
and collections groups.
