Kentucky Construction Lawyers

At Ackerson & Yann we craft practical, workable solutions for construction clients of all sizes. We are problem solvers who know how to get the job done right in the time-sensitive, detail-oriented realm of construction. We develop custom legal solutions for projects ranging from single family residences to large, multi-phase commercial and industrial projects, to highways.

Ackerson & Yann represents owners, contractors, subcontractors, construction managers, developers, design professionals, and material suppliers in all phases of the construction process, including:

  • Forming construction-related companies
  • Bidding and bonding
  • Contract drafting, negotiation, and review
  • Contract changes
  • Construction transactions
  • Avoidance and resolution of disputes
  • Residential construction, modifications, and renovations
  • Construction documentation
  • Preparation and prosecution of claims
  • Mechanic's liens
  • OSHA compliance

For effective legal assistance negotiating the resolution of any technical or financial problems that may arise during the construction process or litigating construction disputes in court, please contact a Kentucky construction lawyer at Ackerson & Yann today.

To save our clients the time and cost of litigation, our attorneys seek to resolve disputes outside the courtroom through counseling, settlement negotiations, mediation, arbitration, and other forms of alternative dispute resolution. However, we will be prepared to vigorously advocate in front of the judge and jury, should it be necessary.

Our attorneys handle litigation and alternative dispute resolution involving:

  • Construction defects
  • Design errors
  • Drainage and elevation issues
  • Breach of contract / change order disputes
  • Enforcement of lien actions
  • Construction insurance issues
  • Scheduling critical path claims
  • Equitable relief
  • Asbestos / hazardous substance abatement
  • Entitlement to arbitration / ADR

For further information, please contact a Kentucky construction lawyer at our firm today.
