Throughout the past three
decades, Gilbert, Kelly, Crowley & Jennett has developed a skilled practice in
the field of construction law, representing developers, general contractors,
sub-contractors, architects, engineers, insurance carriers and self-insured
corporations involved in construction casualty/accident claims of every type
imaginable. We have represented clients in delay claims as well as
allegations of improper and defective construction and design. We have
litigated complex insurance coverage matters (first and third party issues) on
behalf of numerous insurance carriers and economically resolved large
construction defect cases. We have gained a reputation for establishing
quick and efficient control over large cases through the effective use of
quality experts, mediation, and our extensive experience litigating a wide
variety of construction related matters.
In addition to our experience and expertise in the liability aspects of
construction work, we are also experienced and well versed in the inevitable and
varied insurance questions that arise from this complex area of litigation.
Evaluating the availability and extent of liability coverage, contractual and
equitable indemnification issues, mediations and arbitrations, settlement
conferences and all manner of insurance-related consulting and litigation can
all be handled with the efficiency, expertise, and professionalism we at GKC&J
have become known for over the past 50 years.
Litigation is our primary experience base with a history of over 50 years of successful
results. We have the ability and the talent to field experienced lead counsel
and the support of trained associates, law clerks and paralegals necessary to
get the job done in complex cases. When construction defect cases move into the
multi-track expert deposition phase, we have the ability to staff them with a
true litigation team, where each member is thoroughly trained in every aspect of
construction litigation. Further, our construction litigation and transaction
teams work closely with our insurance coverage department so as to insure that
all possible financial resources to bear the costs of these claims are
maximized.
In addition to our ability to provide legal services to our clients regarding construction-related
litigation matters from the pre-litigation, initial claims handling stage
through the trial and appellate stages, we have a department of skilled
transactional attorneys to assist our clients through the development,
negotiation and preparation of construction contracts, architectural,
engineering and design agreements, professional service agreements, purchase
orders, payment and performance bonds, mechanics’ liens, stop notices, notices
of completion, consulting agreements and construction management agreements. By
really understanding our clients and their businesses, we can assist them from
the ground up.
