The Darvish Firm provides a broad array of services that encompass all phases of the construction process, from construction contract formation and negotiation through claims analysis and resolution. We have represented owners, contractors, and subcontractor in matters ranging from small residential projects, large multi unit residential projects to large commercial projects throughout Southern California. We handle structural, architectural, mechanical, electrical, product liability, site planning and design, civil engineering, surveying and traffic control planning cases. We also handle personal injury and death cases during construction projects ranging from indoor air quality to industrial accidents, equipment accidents, automobile accidents, and trench accidents.

           

            In the early stages of a project, we provide assistance with drafting, reviewing and negotiating contracts, whether standardized form contracts or more customized contracts. Our services in the contract formation area typically include advice concerning risk allocation clauses and measures that best suit the particular client's needs. We also assists clients in troubleshooting problems that arise during a project in an effort to avoid formal claims and/or litigation.

 

            The Attorneys at The Darvish Firm pride themselves on and have demonstrated their ability to, in many instances, resolve construction-related conflicts and building disputes to the advantage of its clients at an early stage and in a cost-effective manner.

 

            However, we offer extensive experience and skill in litigation as well as in the alternative dispute areas of mediation and arbitration, for those instances where a negotiated resolution cannot be achieved.
