For this week’s Guest Post Friday here at Musings, we welcome a good friend, Brett Marston. Brett is the head of the construction law practice group at Gentry Locke Rakes & Moore in Roanoke, Va. and a member of the firm’s management committee. He is AV-rated by Martindale-Hubbell and has extensive experience in construction contract negotiations and preparation, payment disputes, mechanic’s liens, bond claims, construction defects, delay claims, insurance, litigation, and OSHA matters. He handles significant construction matters in federal and state courts, arbitration, and mediation for general contractors, subcontractors, owners, design professionals, and suppliers. Brett is a 1993 graduate, with honors, from the George Mason University School of Law, and a 1990 graduate of the University of Virginia. Prior to starting with Gentry Locke in 1994, Brett was a law clerk to the Honorable J. Calvit Clarke, Jr., Sr. Judge of the United States District Court, Eastern District of Virginia (Norfolk Division).
In the spirit of the word “musings,” I’d like to offer some thoughts I have about several construction law and construction litigation topics.
