OVERVIEW

Chambers USA listed Nexsen Pruet’s Construction Team as a Tier 1 Firm in North
Carolina in 2021. 

Our construction clients require counsel with a deep understanding of this
ever-changing industry. Nexsen Pruet’s award-winning Construction lawyers
provide guidance on projects from beginning to end, advising on matters related
to bidding and procurement, bid protests, contract preparation, and dispute
resolution. 

Our attorneys have decades of experience guiding clients through every stage of
a construction project and have seen the bumps in the road. They use that
knowledge to anticipate risks and discuss possible outcomes. Nexsen Pruet’s
collaborative approach to client service is apparent in our ability to leverage
our resources and pull together counsel from within the firm on real estate,
environmental, corporate, employment, and bankruptcy matters that may affect
your project — from contract reviews to permitting, insurance to financing,
delays to cumulative impact, and surety bond claims.

How you resolve them can have a major impact on your company, your image, and
your bottom line. Nexsen Pruet's team of Construction attorneys understands the
many sides of the industry. Our lawyers have the experience needed to help
manage and overcome the diverse challenges you deal with every day.

Broad industry experience

We are proud to have developed one of the leading construction practices in the
Carolinas. Our experience touches on all areas of the industry, including:

 * Pre-construction planning
 * Bid-packaging
 * Employment issues
 * Federal, state and local procurement
 * Environmental permitting
 * Project financing
 * Contract drafting and review
 * Claims preparation
 * Litigation, including multi-party and complex construction-related litigation
   in state and federal courts
 * Mediation and arbitration proceedings
 * Mechanics' liens and bond claims
 * Surety and insurance matters
 * Insurance coverage actions

We represent clients throughout the Southeast and nationally, including public
and private owners, developers, design professionals, contractors,

Our attorneys have been involved in many successful construction projects in
both the public and private sectors including educational and medical buildings,
infrastructure improvements, industrial and manufacturing facilities, and
hospitality projects.

VIDEOS/PODCASTS

 * Lien Waiver Reviews are Needed in Light of North Carolina’s new Senate Bill
   291
   
   With the recent passing of Senate Bill 219, significantly limiting the
   enforceability of certain lien waivers, now is the time for owners,
   contractors, subcontractors and suppliers to review their lien waivers. Brett
   Becker provides an overview of the new protections and what to look for.
   
   
 * Preserving Lien Rights to Ensure Contactors are Paid for their Projects
   
   With the COVID-19 pandemic and newly elected officials taking office, there
   are many uncertainties about what 2021 will bring to the construction
   industry. However, one certainty is that contractors will need to preserve
   their lien rights to ensure they are paid on construction projects if
   problems arise. Attorney Jeff Reichard discusses lien rights in North
   Carolina as they relate to subcontractors, specifically first-tier
   subcontractors.
   
   
 * Ensuring Payment for Construction Projects
   
   As many businesses are planning to come out of the pandemic and get back to
   business, those in the construction arena know one thing – construction never
   stopped and won’t stop. However, sometimes the business needs to stop, and
   reflect on best practices. Construction attorney Brett Becker discusses what
   suppliers need to do to ensure they are ready to secure payment even when the
   customer stops paying.
   
   
 * COVID-19 and it's Effect on NC and SC Construction
   
   During the COVID-19 outbreak, the construction industry in the Carolinas has
   been impacted less than many industries. Most construction projects have
   continued without significant interruption.
