Construction

Squire Sanders has the global resources, expertise and know-how to help clients address all of their construction, engineering and projects needs, from private development and public infrastructure improvements to public-private partnerships (PPP). Our practice draws on the experience of lawyers throughout our worldwide offices, who represent clients investing conducting business activities in the United States, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America and the Middle East.

Our clients represent every phase of a construction project. We advise owners, operators, contractors and subcontractors, governments, venture capitalists, management consultants and architects – from initial contract negotiation to final details to post project disputes and tax matters.

We have in depth experience in key areas where the sector operates including energy and infrastructure, defense, real estate, retail complexes, manufacturing and sports facilities. Our global reach and local market knowledge allow us to support our clients’ projects wherever they are located.

We advise clients on the full life-cycle of construction projects:

• Procurement process including project structuring and finance
• Mergers, acquisitions and joint ventures
• Operational concerns including land rights agreements
• Compliance issues including environmental and labor matters

Clients can also count on our lawyers to react strategically to claims, litigation and dispute resolution incidental to many construction and engineering projects. When disputes arise, our lawyers are prepared to respond with cost-effective measures or, if necessary, with vigorous and skillful litigation before the appropriate courts.
