Construction

Important contractual rights and remedies can be lost, hard-won statutory protections waived, and serious liabilities incurred—all through ignorance of the law. This newsletter is designed to give you, in 60 seconds, some more insight into legal problems faced by contractors, subcontractors, and suppliers in the construction industry, so that you do not repeat their mistakes and, instead, successfully complete the job.

Co., No. 19-CV-2053, 2022 WL 17094584 (D. Md. Nov. 21, 2022). Click the link above to download a PDF of the full 60 Second Construction Law Journal – Winter 2023.
