Construction Litigation

As a US – Russian law firm, Marks & Sokolov advises on all aspects of doing business in Russia. The quickly changing legal climate in Russia requires continued attention to new laws and regulations affecting multinational businesses. Our firm also assists US law firms which do not have a presence in Russia. This assistance includes issuing expert opinions on Russian law, representing clients in Russian courts, and conducting discovery and depositions in Russia. The firm has entered into a cooperation agreement with the Russian Attorneys Guild and can provide qualified legal representation throughout Russia.

  • Successful representation of the Caribbean subsidiary of an international petroleum company in a multi-million dollar business interruption and property damage claim arising at a petrochemical project. Our field investigation revealed substantial performance deficiencies by the construction contractor in planning and execution, which created the conditions for a catastrophic crane accident. The contractual limitation-of-liability defenses were defeated and the matter was settled with our client receiving in excess of $20 million.
  • Representation of a sub-contractor at a Florida ocean front condominium project. After a comprehensive investigation, differing site conditions were revealed, exonerating the sub-contractor from project delay claims and setting the ground work for a global settlement among all project participants.
