Written by leading construction law practitioners, the Forum on the Construction Law's newly updated textbook Construction Law, Second Edition meets the pressing need for a comprehensive law school textbook. It provides a complete orientation to the construction industry and its processes, and it can be used for introductory survey courses or more advanced courses oriented towards litigation or transactions.
Construction Law, Second Edition examines the roles of the various participants in the construction process and the vocabulary essential to understanding its cases and legal principles. The book's logical development tracks the construction process in a chronological way. Taking a course that utilizes this book will help students prepare to successfully interview for construction law positions in law firms and it will provide a useful reference book for students who enter the practice of construction law.
