After a complex payment dispute threatened to derail our commercial development project in Northern Kentucky, our company turned to Bill Geisen. With over four decades of experience, his depth of knowledge in construction law was immediately apparent. He didn't just react to the lawsuit; he provided a strategic overview of our contract, identified key leverage points we had overlooked, and guided us through a mediation process with remarkable clarity. His recognition as a 'Lawyer of the Year' in Construction Litigation is well-earned, reflecting a career dedicated to this nuanced field. Bill’s approach is both thorough and pragmatic—he explained every legal step in straightforward terms, never losing sight of our business objectives. The result was a favorable settlement achieved without the cost and delay of a protracted trial. His leadership of the Construction Service Group at Stites & Harbison means you're not just getting an attorney, but access to a deep bench of resources.
