As litigation against home builders continues to clog the courts and drive up the costs of homeownership, how construction lawyers can help solve this challenge will be discussed during a Construction Law Seminar in Scottsdale, Ariz. on Sept. 6-7.

David Jaffe, NAHB staff vice president for construction liability and legal research, will be the moderator for the “Legal Challenges in Representation of the Home Builder” discussion on Sept. 6 about how construction lawyers can help their home builder clients reduce litigation.

Other panelists include Peggy Caldwell, senior vice president and acting general counsel for Beazer Homes, and Timothy Geckle, general counsel for The Ryland Group.

In addition to the home builder-specific panel, the two-day seminar will also include topics such as the business and legal risks associated with building green; emerging insurance coverage issues; defense of foundation, site work and geotechnical claims; and more.

The seminar is open to coverage attorneys, in-house counsel for construction or engineering firms, class action coordinating counsel, construction litigators, claims professionals, home builders and product manufacturers.

The seminar is being conducted by DRI, the Chicago-based national organization of defense trial lawyers and corporate counsel.
