Experienced Construction Law Guidance
There may not be enough room on the internet to list all of the legal challenges and potential pitfalls that project owners, construction companies and their customers, and other industry participants face on a daily basis. Suffice it to say there are many, and because of this, there’s no way to overestimate the value of having experienced legal counsel.
At The Law Office of Mark E. Sostarich, more than 40 years of experience representing clients in the construction industry have given me the knowledge and ability to meet any challenge involving this area of the law. An extensive background in the state and federal trial and appellate courts of Wisconsin has also made me well aware of the issues, traps and mistakes that typically land parties in court. This, in turn, enables me to provide my clients with proactive legal counsel and services that minimize this possibility.
