Indispensable counsel on a complex construction defect case

Our company faced a multi-million dollar construction defect claim involving a delayed commercial project. Christopher Wan’s deep knowledge of both commercial litigation and the specific intricacies of construction law was immediately evident. He guided us through a complex dispute resolution process with a strategic, no-nonsense approach. His recognition in these practice areas is well-deserved. Christopher was always prepared, clearly explained our options, and secured a favorable settlement that protected our interests without the need for a protracted trial. His professionalism and expertise from Cokinos Young were exceptional throughout.
