Indispensable Guidance Through a Complex Construction Dispute

When our small development company faced a significant breach of contract and delay claim from a general contractor, the situation felt overwhelming. We turned to Matthew Collins at Fabyanske Westra Hart & Thomson based on his specific recognition in Construction Law and Litigation. His 24 years of experience were immediately evident. Matthew meticulously dissected the project documents, provided a clear strategic assessment, and navigated the pre-litigation negotiations with a firm yet pragmatic approach. His deep understanding of both the legal and practical realities of construction projects was invaluable. We achieved a highly favorable settlement without the need for protracted court battles, protecting our business's financial health and reputation. Matthew’s professionalism, expertise, and calm guidance were exactly what we needed.
