The attorneys at Taylor Day Law help clients navigate complex laws, procedures and legal concepts. We provide a personalized analysis to each client to ensure that he or she has a full understanding of the case. We are also familiar with the industry’s products, services, and operations which allows us to evaluate claims early on and determine potential exposure and liability. In each case that we handle, our lawyers carefully outline the options available so that clients have the information they need to make sound and informed decisions.
When construction disputes arise, our goal is to help clients resolve the dispute at the earliest possible stage so that business relationships can be preserved and projects can be completed.
