Construction Litigation Support:

m2e’s core reputation is based on its exposure and experience of the construction litigation process. By providing named witnesses in numerous mediation, arbitration and litigation processes, we have developed an intrinsic sensibility and respect for the process itself. Our no-nonsense approach has earned us praise for objectiveness and capability to grasp core issues. This has made a particularly qualified in helping our clients identify their chances in a litigation process, and servicing their needs as they engage in it.

Condominium Liability Mitigation

Based on its extensive experience in construction litigation, m2e has devised a three prong program specifically designed to minimize Developers’ exposure in building condominium projects. The program comprises of plan review, regular follow-up in the field, and close-out procedures (for an example of plan review comments, see the link below). It focuses on the very items that are likely to become issues during the Turnover Process, and later during the warranty period. Regular observations conducted in the field help identify and document potential issues. A comprehensive follow-up program endeavors to enforce attention to those very issues, and gives clear guidelines on mode and timing to resolve them. Finally, as the construction nears completion, the program’s close-out procedures offer guidelines and specific services (such as review of as-built drawings, or warranty lists) for preparing the building for Turnover. m2e also offers services in assisting Developers during the Turnover Process itself.

Loss Prevention Quality Assurance

Some of our best clients are general contractors who hire m2e to perform quality control for their projects. With m2e to watch their back, our clients are able to deliver a higher quality product, in less time, and with much less risk of liability. Because we have seen almost everything that can go wrong with construction, in every discipline and every phase of construction, we can help our clients to catch the problem before it becomes a litigation nightmare.
