Trusted Construction Dispute Resolution and Litigation in Austin, Texas

Our firm can go all the way through a trial if that is what is needed to prosecute or defend your rights. In fact, we have navigated clients through numerous construction disputes, trials, arbitrations, mediations, and appeals with great success. That being said, we also recognize that litigation is not always the desired course of action to resolve construction-related conflicts.

Finding smart, effective ways to resolve disputes is of the utmost importance to our firm—and it’s at the core of everything we do. That is why we work diligently to resolve the dispute outside of court when possible through arbitration, mediation, or direct negotiation with less delay and expense than the traditional courtroom process.

Strategic Litigation for Risk and Results

Our litigators know, from many years of frontline, practical experience, that construction matters cannot be solved with a one-size-fits-all approach, and that analyzing and mitigating risk is essential—whether the claim is small or large. We believe that early detection of a problem is critical to delivering the knowledge and foresight needed to help clients mitigate potential threats. If a problem cannot be immediately resolved, we structure legal claims and defenses early on to support our client’s key objectives.
