Our development firm faced a significant dispute with a subcontractor over defective work and delays that threatened to derail a major Boulder commercial project. We engaged Nicholas DeBruyne at Berg Hill Greenleaf & Ruscitti based on his specific recognition in Litigation - Construction. His strategic approach was immediately evident. Nicholas meticulously analyzed our contracts and project documentation, then crafted a resolution strategy that avoided unnecessary courtroom drama without sacrificing our position. His deep understanding of Colorado construction law and the practical realities of building projects allowed him to negotiate from a position of immense strength. The result was a favorable settlement that compensated us for the defects and kept the project timeline largely intact. Nicholas’s professionalism, clear communication, and focus on achieving our business objectives were exceptional. He is precisely the caliber of attorney you hope to find when a complex construction issue arises.
