Sustainable Construction

Sustainable “green” construction is in the news and here to stay.

Here at Construction Law Musings, we like to keep up with the world of sustainable construction and the legal issues that face contractors, subcontractors and even construction lawyers relating to this growing field. The topics range from LEED certification issues and construction contract drafting to my role on the Build2Sustain advisory board.
