Construction law is the body of law that deals with compliance in regard to building requirements and zoning regulations for new construction projects. It also includes legal activities required to handle contract disputes that arise in the course of construction, such as contractor claims for lost time or damages due to reasons caused by principal. Construction law attorneys must be multi-disciplined professionals who understand engineering, architecture, environmental law, OSHA law and general contract law. The responsibilities of building lawyers arise when a project is in the proposal stage and they don’t end until the approval and commissioning of a building or project. At Ackerson & Yann, PLLC, our construction law attorneys are ready to take on and tackle your most challenging problems – whether they involve tricky building requirements or convoluted state regulations.

When you need building lawyers in Louisville, Kentucky, there are a number of qualities you should look for, which are qualities found in our staff. You want your lawyer to not only know the law, but also keep up with changes in the law. The phrase, “here today, gone tomorrow” may be well suited to describe compliance with construction laws. Overnight, things can change because of modifications in major laws such as the Americans with Disabilities Act, or OSHA requirements for welders.

Our lawyers keep themselves abreast of important legal changes before they take place so that they can anticipate the needs of clients. You want your Louisville construction law attorneys to understand construction. That means you want attorneys who aren’t afraid to put on a hard hat and go to the building site. That means attorneys who know how to read a civil engineering blue print or electrical schematic. Because when things go wrong, which they sometimes do, it comes down to having a law firm that won’t be pushed around because it doesn’t understand the nuts and bolts of the subject matter. At Ackerson & Yann, PLLC, we look forward to handling all your company’s construction law needs in a manner that will always respect your money, your time and your legal rights.
