Expert Guidance from Cobb Law Group, Georgia-Based, Industry-Focused
Cobb Law Group brings more than 25 years of dedicated experience in construction law, contract drafting, payment issues, and dispute resolution for the construction industry in Georgia. While our attorneys are licensed to practice law in the State of Georgia and a few other surrounding states, we now offer construction consulting services nationwide—serving owners, contractors, subcontractors, design professionals, sureties, and attorneys in other states who value our practical insights, industry framework knowledge, and problem-solving approach.
What Our Consulting Services Include
Our consulting engagements focus on providing actionable, industry-first support—rooted in contract best practices, risk management, and construction process fluency.
- Contract Review, Risk Allocation & Negotiation
We review and interpret standard form and custom agreements (including AIA and ConsensusDocs frameworks) to identify critical provisions on scheduling, payment, change orders, insurance, indemnities and dispute-resolution. Our aim: help you allocate risk wisely and avoid pitfalls before they start. - Project Planning, Documentation & Process Support
With construction and legal experience at CLG, we help you establish strong project controls, documentation practices and contract-administration protocols to reduce downstream disputes, support mitigation of delay or claim issues, and promote smoother workflows. - Claims Preparation & Strategy
Whether you face delay claims, scope disputes, payment hold-ups, or change-order issues, we assist in structuring facts, analyzing contract rights, assessing exposure, and preparing your claim or defense strategy—even if the matter resides in another state. - Dispute Preventive Advice, Mediation & Arbitration Support
While we may not act as counsel outside Georgia, our experience in construction dispute resolution—including bond claims, Miller Act claims, lien work, and litigated matters—makes us effective consultants for preparing you or your legal team for adverse events, or positioning a matter for early resolution. - Training & Internal Policy Development for Construction Professionals
We design tailored workshops and internal-policy reviews for construction-industry clients (owners, contractors, suppliers, design professionals) to strengthen contract literacy, payment-chain awareness, lien-law basics, and claims-avoidance practices.
Why Clients From Other States Retain Us
- Depth of construction-industry legal experience: We’ve built our firm around construction law—focusing on mechanics & materialmen’s liens, payment‐bond claims, contractor risks, contract design, arbitration and litigation. (Cobb Law Group)
- A practical, problem-solving mindset: We don’t just “provide advice” — we help you structure solutions, anticipate disputes, and align contract strategy with business goals.
- Contract-form familiarity: Our team works regularly with AIA, ConsensusDocs and custom contract forms in the construction industry—giving us an operational lens, not just a purely legal one.
- Flexible, consultant-oriented engagements: Because our consulting roles are advisory rather than full legal representation (outside Georgia), clients appreciate our ability to plug in, assist their in-house or local counsel, and deliver value across jurisdictions.
How It Works
- Consultation: We begin with a scoped‐call or meeting to understand your project or issue, the contract form, the parties, and your objectives.
- Engagement Agreement: We define the consulting role, deliverables, staged scope, and fee structure—clear, targeted and efficient.
- Delivery: We review contracts, documents, project history or claims, and provide written advice and/or strategy discussion. We may coordinate with your local legal counsel, project team or leadership.
- Follow-through: Whether it’s an internal workshop, ongoing advice, or preparation for mediation/arbitration, we work as your strategic partner in construction.
Serving Across Project Types & Roles
Our consulting services are relevant to:
- Owners and Developers looking to strengthen their contracting and project-risk posture
- Contractors and Subcontractors (prime, specialty, or trade) wanting to improve contract terms, streamline change management, or prepare for potential claims
- Design professionals (architects, engineers) seeking contract review, risk mitigation or advice on construction-phase exposure
- Material Suppliers and Equipment Providers needing clarity on payment-chain, lien-law and contract-risk issues
- Attorneys in other states or jurisdictions who want to tap an experienced construction-industry consultant to support their team or client.
Licensed in Georgia – Consulting Nationwide
Please note: While Cobb Law Group is licensed to practice law in Georgia, the consulting work described here does not constitute legal representation outside Georgia.
