Construction Law

Look at just about any major construction project in Atlantic Canada and you’ll find McInnes Cooper on the job. We act for owners, consultants and contractors in all aspects of private and public construction projects including:

  • Contract negotiation
  • Contract administration
  • Dispute resolution
  • Financing structure and evaluation
  • Project structure
  • Public-private partnership arrangements
  • Risk assessment and avoidance
  • Tender preparation and evaluation

Our team is active in projects of all size and scope, and we take an active role in the industry. Many of our construction lawyers are also professional engineers. We hold an annual construction law seminar, prepare regular newsletters, are involved in local and national construction organizations, and participate in local, regional and national conferences and seminars.
