Our attorneys regularly attend legal seminars to keep up-to-date and to hone their legal tools. In addition, we actively participate in several legal construction organizations, including the Los Angeles County Bar’s Construction Law Subsection, and a Construction Law Study Group comprised of elite construction attorneys who meet quarterly to roundtable issues and current trends in construction law.
