Glass. Steel. Stone. Wood. Bringing these elements together in a useful structure requires more than artful design or skilled craftsmen. Construction projects can founder on disputes over bids or labor, materials shortages, delays, and scores of other mishaps and miscues.

We know that whether a project is budgeted at $100 million or $10,000, whether ownership is public or private, problems most often arise from a troublesome combination of poorly crafted documents and differing expectations. That is why we approach every construction project from a preventive perspective. Working for owners, professional liability insurers, engineers, design-builders, product manufacturers and construction managers in Illinois and other states, Robbins, Schwartz's expert counsel extends across the continuum of the construction process.

Our proficiency extends beyond construction projects to other commercial matters. We counsel public entities on a wide range of transactions, including purchase, sale, and lease of property and contracts for services. Recommending finance solutions and advising on any tax implications are essential elements of the entire transactional experience.

Robbins, Schwartz offers an unparalleled team dedicated to construction and commercial transactions. Our substantive knowledge of applicable contracts, laws, rules, and regulations, together with our focused experience in the field are recognized throughout Illinois' legal community, and our practical, problem-solving approach is respected by clients.
