Several Deutsch Kerrigan attorneys are trained in architecture or engineering and focus primarily on construction litigation and construction-related design professional liability. In this practice, our attorneys defend design professionals like architects and engineers against malpractice claims including design professional errors and omissions as well as the defense of personal injury and property damage claims resulting from the construction process or design error.
The firm has been involved in several sentinel cases involving statute of limitations and statute of repose as they address claims against architects, engineers, and surveyors. Since many design professionals have contracts containing mandatory mediation and/or arbitration provisions, Deutsch Kerrigan lawyers practicing in this field have extensive experience in ADR procedures and strategies.
