Overview
Board-certified by the Florida Bar in construction law, litigator and mediator Ken Curtin has more than 20 years of experience representing developers, general contractors, subcontractors, suppliers, temporary help agencies, architects, engineers, interior designers, and other design professionals in state and federal courts and in arbitration proceedings. He also maintains a nation-wide practice representing business entities, regional malls, and landlords resolving the many-faceted disputes faced by businesses of all nature and commercial property owners including landlord/tenant issues, vendor and real estate disputes, and and other contractual actions.
Increasingly, Ken handles high-end insurance defense, products liability, and premise liability cases, drawing in part from his early-career work in insurance defense for construction projects, and on matters involving collapsed buildings and commercial disasters and hazards such as fires and explosions, and other industrial accidents.
Ken also represents clients in litigation regarding credit collection practices, including alleged violations of the TCPA.
With an MBA and a master’s degree in public administration, Ken also counsels clients on the business aspects of their operations. As a board-certified attorney, he stays tightly hooked into information sources, maintaining close relationships with the relevant regulatory bodies that consider proposals and recommendations within the industry and construction law changes affecting all aspects of the construction industry.
While primarily a litigator, Ken also drafts and reviews contracts, bringing a litigator’s perspective that enables him to realize ambiguities that could lead to litigation, and then he cleans up the document to prevent trouble down the road.
