John P. Gallagher

I am a results-oriented lawyer with broad experience in varied complex litigation with significant emphasis on representation of a range of clients across the construction industry in disputes proceedings and transactions. Efforts on behalf of clients have ranged from the drafting of all types of construction agreements, including design-build, EPC, and construction management agreements all the way through dispute resolution and litigation of contractor termination. I have experience with a wide variety of construction projects including hospitals, schools, hotels and resort facilities, high rise residential, prisons, office buildings, government buildings and power generation and heavy industrial plants.

As sole or lead trial counsel I have successfully tried both jury and bench cases before state and federal courts throughout the United States as well as cases before various Boards of Contract Appeals. I have arbitrated and mediated numerous disputes, as both trial counsel and also as a party appointed arbitrator and as sole and panel arbitrator. Additionally I have served by appointment as Special Assistant Attorney General in Georgia representing State Agencies and Authorities in construction, procurement and bidding disputes on major technology and infrastructure projects valued in the hundreds of millions of dollars.
