Peter Hahn

Peter represents commercial contractors and project owners through each stage of a construction project, from procurement to dispute resolution after completion. His experience and extensive construction industry knowledge allow him to advise public and private clients through disputes and liability avoidance, from drafting and negotiating construction contracts to post-project issues, such as construction defect claims. Peters experience also includes advising clients on the structure and execution of public-private partnership (P3) projects, including the development of a multi-use, multi-building development on publicly owned property, the development of a student dormitory for a community college, and the delivery of an upgraded Interstate highway for a state department of transportation. He also has served as project counsel for significant renovation and new-build construction projects for two major convention facilities. In addition to advising clients on the challenges that arise in commercial and public construction projects, Peter is adept at guiding clients through potential schedule and cost risks such as change orders and directives, differing site conditions, delay and acceleration claims, project safety concerns, problems with coordination of work, construction defect claims, state and federal prevailing wage law, mechanics liens, appropriate project delivery methods, payment and delivery performance bond claims, and publicly bid projects.
