Jeremy P. Brummond, a member in the litigation department, wrote a chapter in the Book Construction Dispute Resolution (Aspatore) entitled The Economic Downturn's Effect on Construction Litigation: Construction Dispute Resolution in the Aftermath.
Construction Dispute Resolution is part of the Aspatore "Inside the Minds" series. Aspatore describes the "Inside the Minds" series as follows: "Inside the Minds provides readers with proven business intelligence from C-Level executives and lawyers (Chairman, CEO, CFO, CMO, Partner) from the world's most respected companies and firms nationwide. Each chapter is comparable to an essay/thought leadership piece and is a future-oriented look at where an industry, profession, or topic is heading and the most important issues for the future. Each author has been selected based upon their experience and C-level standing within the professional community."
The book, itself, is described as "an authoritative, insider's perspective on key strategies for representing and advising clients involved in construction disputes. Featuring partners from some of the nation's leading law firms, these experts guide the reader through the types of construction disputes that are seen most frequently and the options available for resolving these disputes."
Mr. Brummond's chapter focuses on the effect the recession has had on (1) the types of construction claims being pursued, (2) settlement of construction claims, and (3) the means and methods of litigating construction claims.
