Cozen O’Connor not only knows construction law—we know the construction industry. We understand the economics, culture, language, and technology that underlie modern building projects.
With more than 40 attorneys practicing in 10 offices throughout the United States, Cozen O’Connor’s Construction Group has the depth and geographical reach to handle our clients’ most complex problems in the United States and abroad. The Construction Group includes attorneys who are ranked nationally by leading peer-reviewed publications, including Chambers USA, U.S. News/Best Lawyers, and The Legal 500. In 2020 the group was also recognized as Law360 Construction Group of the Year.
Our attorneys have been in the field and on work sites for more than 40 years, so our legal advice is grounded in that direct, practical experience. We anticipate problems, recommend creative solutions and structure practical agreements. We listen to clients’ specific needs because a “win” can mean different things in challenging construction and legal environments. Whatever the goal, we efficiently analyze the substance of construction-related claims, help our clients respond in a decisive fashion, and communicate effectively with all parties, from ironworkers and masons to engineers and experts.
Our lawyers are experienced in mediation and other alternative dispute resolution techniques. But when a fair resolution is not possible, Cozen O’Connor’s construction litigators are prepared to go to trial. We have successfully tried cases in state, federal, and international venues, earning a national reputation for skill and tenacity in the courtroom. In fact, the Construction Group is chaired by one of the few construction litigators ever invited to be a Fellow of the American College of Trial Lawyers.
And when construction matters intersect with other disciplines, the Construction Group draws on the resources of a full-service, international law firm. Our construction clients benefit from experienced and integrated corporate, environmental, labor and white-collar practices, among others. In addition, the firm’s nationally recognized insurance team regularly advises construction industry leaders on alternative insurance coverage programs, liability and risk review, coverage issues, and claims.
