PRACTICE AREAS Construction

Over the decades, Goldberg & Connolly has focused on all aspects of the construction industry representing general contractors, “heavy highway” contractors and “vertical building” contractors, construction managers, public owners/government agencies, private owners and developers, subcontractors, sureties, construction suppliers and manufacturers and design professionals.

The Construction Practice Group, to which most of the firm's personnel and resources are devoted, draws from many years of experience in the construction industry. The firm’s partners and associates benefit from their prior involvement in both public and private sector construction. From bid pre-qualifications and protests to contract interpretation and claims prosecution, the firm works closely with its clients to either prevent disputes or to develop creative solutions to them. If necessary, the firm will aggressively and effectively litigate on behalf of its clients. We begin every case with a specifically tailored litigation plan designed to obtain defined business objectives.

The firm is also actively involved in defending the interests of sureties in complex construction disputes, as well as in pursuing affirmative contract claims, often the most productive source for capturing additional funds for project completion.

The firm also prides itself on its long-standing relationships with public owners actively involved in construction in the New York metropolitan area. Communication with the policy and decision makers of these agencies is an invaluable avenue for creative, cost-effective problem solving. Often, difficulties between contractor and owner/field management personnel become too “personal.” Having the ability to reach out to upper-level management in most agencies can mean the difference between the amicable resolution of a dispute and years of costly litigation.

Today, Goldberg & Connolly is a recognized authority on all aspects of construction and government contract law and is at the forefront of new issues, developments and legislation affecting the industry.
