In a recent Construction Dive article, Gunster Shareholder and Construction Law Practice Co-Chair, Julia Holden Davis, weighs in on the rising dispute costs the construction industry is seeing in the post-Covid landscape.

Julia details how increasing costs and financing requirements have led more people to dispute things they might have overlooked before. She also shares how her most savvy clients engage in preconstruction planning to avoid potential disputes. "They spend a lot of time on the front end reviewing documents, trying to understand what’s there, raising concerns early and really following all of the requirements in the contract in terms of correspondence and notice and put a lot of emphasis on that organizationally," she observes.
