Cohen, P.A. has the experience you need to navigate the construction contract field successfully.

Allocations of Risks

As part of the services we offer at the law offices of Jonathan P. Cohen, your Fort Lauderdale construction contract lawyer will evaluate your contracts to determine whether the terms of these agreements are in your best interest. A few basic principles will ensure the right allocation of risks for your project:

  • Risks should be allocated to the parties most able to control the outcomes of the situations in question. For instance, since injuries and accidents fall under the control of the contractor in charge of the work site, these risks are usually assigned to the construction contracting firm and not to the owner of the property.
  • Indemnity clauses can be used to assign responsibility for specific losses and to require insurance coverage for certain parties to the contract. This will ensure that payouts go smoothly for failure to adhere to the terms of the contract.
  • Waivers of subrogation are also useful provisions that can prevent ongoing legal actions between insurers and the parties to your construction contracts. This will ensure that the risk transferred to insurers stays there rather than returning to the contract signees.
