Downtown Tampa and Brandon, Florida

I have extensive experience litigating in all areas of construction disputes and related areas of bidding, the Consultants’ Competitive Negotiation Act, public contracts, leases, public easements, public roads, taxation, bid protests, and special assessments.

I currently serve on the Bar's Steering Committee for the revision of Florida's Construction Law and Practice. As an adjunct professor, I taught Construction Law at Stetson College of Law. I was an instructor in Environmental Law at Golden Gate University's MacDill AFB facility. I have lectured extensively on construction contract claims and avoiding litigation, and I am a guest lecturer in Construction Law at the University of Florida's School of Building Construction in Gainesville.

The Florida Bar's Florida Construction Law and Practice includes a chapter that I wrote titled Bids, Bid Disputes, and Competitive Negotiations Involving Public Entities. I also revised the chapter Construction Liens in the Florida CLE (Continuing Legal Education) publication Legal Forms & Worksheets Manual, and I revised and updated the chapter on The Public Works Contract in the same publication.  I am co-author of Rights and Remedies Against Other Parties To Process in Wiley & Sons' Contractor's Handbook; and the chapter on Contracts To Construct Sewerage and Water Treatment Plants in Wiley & Sons' Construction Project Form Book.

I worked with Dean Frank E. Maloney of the University of Florida in writing the rules for the South Florida Water Management District, The Water Resources Act of 1972
