Firm Overview

Historic Construction Law Firm

Our firm was established in 1919 by Max E. Greenberg, long regarded as the "Dean" of construction law. Our lawyers began focusing on construction disputes during the 1930s and today concentrate on construction law and related areas. We have handled on behalf of developers some of the largest construction projects in the United States, as well as providing smaller-scale developers, and in select cases contractors, subcontractors and design professionals with the efficient legal representation they need. We also serve as construction law consultants on large construction loans in numerous jurisdictions across the country.
