State of North Carolina
North Carolina Depart of Transportation ("NCDOT")
Our attorneys are among the few attorneys who have actually tried lawsuits against the NCDOT and obtained landmark judgments favorable to our clients. We have decades of experience in assisting contractors in obtaining supplemental agreements they are due, or preserving and prosecuting their claim rights in the event the NCDOT fails to timely acknowledge their right to additional compensation while the project is ongoing.
Our firm regularly prosecutes verified claims and lawsuits against the NCDOT. In addition to being familiar with the laws that govern claims against the NCDOT, we are also well versed in the claims provisions of the NCDOT's Standard Specifications for Roads and Streets. Our familiarity with the applicable statutes and regulations not only allows us to handle your claims in a cost effective manner, but this can also afford you the advantage you deserve to assure that your claims are heard on their merits instead of being dismissed on a technicality.
