Approach

Ruberto, Israel & Weiner understands the dynamics and unique demands of the construction industry. Our team is experienced in dealing with construction businesses’ corporate, finance, and real estate matters, and with issues related to the development, financing, sales, and leasing aspects of construction projects. We are knowledgeable in all areas of construction law and skilled in handling construction lawsuits. We resolve disputes quickly and efficiently by employing mediation, arbitration, and other forms of alternative dispute resolution, without litigation when possible.

We represent clients in all areas of the construction industry and help navigate the phases of their projects — from contract development through project close-out and final payment. We have the expertise to address the broad range of situations our construction industry clients encounter, such as public bidding, project restructuring, and regulatory issues.
