We Understand the Construction Trades

Our law firm has longstanding attorney-client relationships with many construction contractors, and we have seen many of these contractors grow over the years from one-truck operations to well-established companies bidding and performing on regionally significant contracts. We help construction clients anticipate and manage the operational challenges that accompany growth while resolving the problems that come up along the way.

Clients who work with Helmer Legal benefit from our ability to apply our understanding of the South Jersey and greater Philadelphia construction trades to the demands of a particular litigation problem without sacrificing continuing business interests or key industry relationships. Clients also find that our focus on practical solutions based on their distinctive business practices and objectives leads to prompt and efficient resolutions on highly favorable terms.
