    Significant Representative Matters: Represented a shell contractor in a large condominium project litigation that spanned more than 6 years. The representation included both defending claims asserted by the Condo Association, as well as the general contractor,
    actively pursuing claims against more than a dozen sub-subcontractors. Through the use of detailed analysis, effective defenses, active tendering
    additional insured tenders,
    settlement negotiations with numerous parties, was able to obtain a valuable resolution in advance of what would have been a 3-month trial.
    Represented framing contractor in binding arbitration initiated by a general contractor for both direct
    consequential damages resulting from the construction of a multi-family building. Carried representation through issuance of Interim Award by the arbitration panel containing a favorable ruling for the client, which included a finding of waiver of all alleged consequential damages. The award spurred a reasonable settlement which the general contractor previously was not willing to consider.
    Obtained a defense verdict at trial for an engineering client related to claims surrounding an alleged failed sinkhole repair. Claims included professional negligence for the design of the repair, as well as claims of fraud
    negligent misrepresentation.
    Defended subcontractors
