Geographical Practice Areas
On private construction projects, our primary practice area consists of the greater Washington-Baltimore region, from Frederick, Maryland to Fredericksburg, Virginia, and from Baltimore and the Maryland Eastern Shore to Leesburg, Virginia.
Due to location in Washington of the United States Court of Claims and the Armed Services and Civilian Boards of Contract Appeals, we have represented contractors on Army, Navy, Corps of Engineers, and other federal agency construction projects throughout the United States and several foreign countries.
