Construction Law
My dealings with Steve Metcalf have taken place over the past 5 years and revolved around compiling a construction contract that was equitable for both the construction firm and owner for a new corporate headquarters. Steve took the necessary time to constantly evaluate the benefits and expenses involved and on multiple occasions, made recommendations to alterations that were more beneficial to the owner. Mr. Metcalf was extraordinarily patient in providing explanations to detailed questions during weeks of negotiations and his experience in construction law proved vital to the success of our project.
