Construction Contracts + Bidding

Concentrated areas of expertise streamline getting the job done.  Miller Canfield Construction attorneys have concentrated legal expertise and hands-on experience and are dedicated to construction project participants in all aspects of their endeavors.  From first stage planning, bidding and arranging financing, through the final walk-through. Big or small. Commercial or industrial.  Retail or resort.  Athletic or academic. Public or private.  Within U.S. borders or anywhere in the world.

We are effective deal makers and problem solvers. 

Our strong multi-disciplinary team has practical experience in all related areas of construction work -- labor relations, real estate, public finance, contract negotiating and drafting, corporate, insurance, and environmental and targeted business regulatory requirements, including defect claims, project safety, Federal and State OSHA regulations.

We represent our clients in construction  litigation and dispute resolution proceedings throughout the country and vigorously pursue alternative dispute resolution, mediation and negotiated settlements when it is in our clients’ best interest to do so.  Our vast experience in traditional litigation and diverse alternative methods of dispute resolution, and our understanding of their respective benefits and risks, means we are good counselors about when to use such proceedings and when to avoid them.

Our experience with consultants in adjunct fields (scheduling, claim preparation, computer-aided litigation support and graphic presentation) benefits clients with access to an additional broad range of efficient services and claims support at reasonable cost.
