SWB represents contractors in a wide range of construction law issues, including construction contract drafting and review, commercial construction litigation, and ensuring compliance with both federal and state laws. We advise clients on matters involving mechanics’ liens, including the filing and enforcement of such liens under state-specific laws like the Pennsylvania Mechanics’ Lien Law and the New Jersey Construction Lien Law (“CLL”).

In addition, we provide counsel on bond claims under the Miller Act for federal projects, and Little Miller Acts governing state public works projects in Pennsylvania and New Jersey, ensuring proper claims are filed for payment and performance bonds. Our firm handles litigation for breach of contract disputes, representing general contractors, subcontractors, and suppliers in cases involving scope of work disputes, change orders, and construction delay claims. We handle construction defect claims, ensuring that contractors are protected against latent defects, design flaw claims, and poor workmanship claims. We represent clients in Contractor and Subcontractor Payment Act claims under Pennsylvania’s Contractor and Subcontractor Payment Act (“CASPA”), as well as Prompt Payment Act claims under the New Jersey Prompt Payment Act (“PPA”), helping contractors recover payments owed on construction projects efficiently.
