Federal and interstate construction is governed by strict requirements. Non-compliance with the Miller Act, Davis-Bacon, FAR, or state lien laws can cost you your right to payment.
Federal public works projects are subject to unique bonding, wage, and procurement requirements. Compliance is mandatory to protect your payment rights and avoid debarment.

Contract Clauses and Dispute Procedures
Private projects across state lines require careful attention to varying state lien laws, choice of law provisions, and federal labor standards.
We navigate the varying notice and recording requirements of each state where you work, ensuring you preserve lien rights across all jurisdictions.
We structure contracts with favorable choice of law and venue provisions that protect your interests while remaining enforceable.
We build proper safety allocation provisions into your contracts, protecting you from liability for OSHA violations on multi-contractor sites.
We draft arbitration and dispute resolution provisions that work across state lines and provide efficient paths to resolution.
When private projects receive federal funds, we ensure your contracts address triggered requirements like Davis-Bacon or Section 3.
Most states have "Little Miller Acts" for state projects. We ensure your subcontracts protect your bond claim rights under applicable state law.
