Join the AIA/AGC Joint Committee for a Lunch and Learn on August 27th
Join the AIA/AGC Joint Committee on August 27th for a Lunch and Learn where we will review a real-life case study to learn strategies for handling disputes in order to prevent litigation. Moderated by David Peden with Porter Hedges, former chair of the State Bar of Texas Construction Law Section, the panel will identify mistakes made on the case study project in order to analyze how to prevent issues on future projects. Hear from Max Montegut of Brookstone Construction and Terry Smith of Smith & Company Architects, who will provide contractor and architect perspectives on how critical mistakes could have been prevented, as well as on how conflicts can be resolved quickly before litigation occurs.
