'A construction attorney is a position for the architect at heart, for not only does a building need to be built out of physical materials, but it must be built conceptually out of contracts, bonds, sureties, liens, and all sorts of agreements with financial institutions. Entire teams of people must work together to make a building happen, and the city or jurisdiction where it is located must allow it. A construction lawyer is necessary to handle all these legal issues. Transactional law is key, but so is knowing everything that goes into making a building, including every level and layer of the process that gets teams together to work together, make contracts and organize their labor.
