Carol Allen
Our mid-sized development firm faced a significant contractual dispute with a major subcontractor over delays and defective work on a Manhattan high-rise project. The situation was escalating toward litigation. Martin Geagan at Winston & Strawn provided exceptional counsel. His deep knowledge of construction litigation, evident from his recognition by Best Lawyers, was immediately apparent. He crafted a nuanced strategy that balanced legal rigor with commercial pragmatism, leading to a favorable settlement without the need for a protracted court battle. His analysis of the project documents and New York construction law was thorough and insightful. While his billing is commensurate with his expertise and the firm's stature, and response times during the busiest phases were occasionally slower than hoped, the overall value and result were outstanding. I would confidently recommend Martin for any complex construction matter.
