Publisher's Synopsis
"Construction Litigation Representing the Owner is a comprehensive resource written by nationally recognized construction litigators who examine each of the participating segments of the construction process. They describe how owners can avoid costly and time-consuming litigation and, if necessary, how owners can best protect themselves if litigation becomes unavoidable. It also seeks to forewarn owners of potential areas of concern and how to handle such problems should concrete disputes actually arise. The Third Edition continues to stress the importance of risk management techniques. This includes the use of liability insurance and the problems of the owner qualifying as an additional insured under a contractor's or subcontractor's policy; and risk management through indemnity agreements. Target audience: Practitioners in the field of real estate development"--.
