Arbitration is a viable and popular alternative to the court process. The more you know and the more you prepare in advance, the better the outcome. Not only is arbitration a preference domestically, but with our global economy, arbitration is also a popular international option.

We all have an obligation to the environment, and there are a myriad of environmental issues facing the construction industry today. Owners and contractors not only have to know how to build, but also have to know where to build and what impact that build will have on air and water pollution, stormwater, wastewater, noise, habitat loss, and much more. Why should an owner have a Suspension of Work clause in their contracts? This Update offers practical recommendations on what actions contractors should take to protect the recovery of damages and why these actions may help owners resolve claims in the field rather than the court.
