About The Program:

          "Construction disputes require lawyers to deal with complex, highly
          technical architectural, engineering and construction issues, making
          expert testimony crucial to prove or defend claims arising from
          construction projects." - New Jersey Law Journal (12/7/18)

          With the complexity of construction law matters increasing, and
          your clients depending on you to get the best results, are you certain
          you’re getting the best results out of the experts you work with?

Whether you handle construction law matters regularly or infrequently, the verdict is in – having a proven set of “best practices” to put to work when working with experts is essential. In fact, if you don’t have best practices in place, you may not be getting the results you deserve. Register today to hear directly from two accomplished New Jersey construction law attorneys and a licensed engineer (with a broad range of experience as a structural designer and as an expert witness for construction litigation cases), as they provide you with the best practices you need to effectively retain and oversee engineering experts. Through a series of compelling presentations and though-provoking discussions, you’ll uncover a wide range of techniques for getting more out of your experts that you can put to work right away in your practice.

Gain the upper hand in when facilitating the use of experts in the construction cases you are handling – make your plans to attend today!
