Construction Projects often involve property damage or personal injury losses that require working with insurance carriers to achieve coverage of the loss and reimbursement for the damage.

Whether it be pursuing coverage as an additional insured, pursuing coverage for defense costs, or eliminating policy exclusions as a ground for denial of coverage, our attorneys are skilled in pursuing all avenues of reimbursement from insurance carriers for losses incurred on a Construction Project. We will aggressively pursue and protect your rights including bad faith actions against insurance carriers if necessary.
