Construction
Gentry Locke Rakes & Moore knows the construction industry. This knowledge, together with hard work and exhaustive preparation, are part of what distinguishes the construction practice group at Gentry Locke Rakes & Moore. Our solid credentials in the commercial construction industry comes with a reputation for being down-to-earth, approachable people with an effective and healthy balance between being aggressive and being reasonable. Group leader Brett Marston sees to it that Gentry Locke attorneys meet the demands of a very competitive industry, one client at a time.
The issues are complex. The timing is always critical. Yet Gentry Locke hits its stride when it comes to the punch-list of needs and issues: contract document origination and refinement, build/design agreements, licensing, real estate, workplace safety (OSHA), labor relations, procurement, environmental requirements, insurances, and much more. A majority of our firm’s construction client relationships come as a result of referrals from other professionals, such as insurance and bonding companies. We’re proud to claim a considerable list of satisfied, long-term clients.
Though based and active in Virginia, Gentry Locke’s assistance is routinely sought for clients with major projects in other states. In such instances we provide crucial counsel, as was the case with a steel fabricator client with major contracts including the new World Trade Center reconstruction project. Our practical, logical approach to this work helps clients toward their ultimate goal: projects that continue smoothly to a successful conclusion.
