New York Construction Law Expertise
Construction law in New York is governed by a complex web of statutes, regulations, and case law that differs significantly from other jurisdictions. New York’s Lien Law, its trust fund provisions under Article 3-A, the scaffold law (Labor Law Section 240), and the city’s building code all create unique legal obligations and liability frameworks. Our attorneys understand these provisions and how they affect our clients’ rights and exposure in construction disputes. We advise clients on compliance and risk management before disputes arise and represent them aggressively when litigation becomes necessary.
