Construction Litigation

Greenbaum’s construction litigation team has a long history in building construction and design defect litigation. The firm has handled construction disputes related to construction projects of all kinds, including high-rise condominiums, warehouses, single family developments, churches, pier and factory conversions, municipal buildings and justice centers, bridges, retaining walls, athletic fields, parking lots, and parking garages.

Our team handles not only disputes involving construction and design issues, but also financial disputes that arise out of the New Jersey Construction Lien Law, surety and performance bond claims, and breach of contract and construction loan claims. We provide counsel related to disputes involving public and private bid protests, insurance coverage, scope of work, employment issues, professional malpractice, negligence, cost overruns, breach of contract, construction delays, project management, and budgeting issues.

The attorneys in this group have particular experience and depth of knowledge related to New Jersey’s regulatory structure and its impact on the state’s building and construction industry. Clients in this area of our practice regularly include developers and builders, property owners, common interest communities, general and specialty contractors, architects and engineers, material suppliers, insurers, lenders, and public sector entities. We provide representation in federal and state court, in alternative dispute resolution (ADR) proceedings, and at hearings before local and county construction boards of appeal and the Office of Administrative Law (OAL).
