At Cohen|Black Law, we assist our construction and design professional clients with disputes about improvements being made to land, and we represent our real estate clients in disputes about the land itself, including title to it. Our clients range from individuals, professional practices, sureties, municipalities, large corporations, franchisees, and small businesses.

We are retained by general and prime contractors, subcontractors, and supply vendors to assist in pursuing lien claims and breach of contract actions so that they can get paid for work performed.
