Cummins & White lawyers contribute posts to the blog relating to business creation, operation and transactions, including mergers and acquisitions, joint ventures, corporate finance, distribution agreements, supply agreements, customer agreements, license agreements, vendor agreements, workouts and restructurings; as well as the tax issues and succession planning so critical to privately-held firms.
Beyond the Scope — A Construction Litigation Blog
The construction litigation blog focuses on legal issues affecting businesses in the construction industry. Having worked in this industry for many years, the construction litigators represent general contractors, subcontractors, and material suppliers. Our clients range from regional landscaping companies to electrical suppliers to Fortune 100 contractors.
We have found that in designing and building new commercial or residential properties, contingency plans are key. Similarly, the construction litigation blog is written to illustrate options and identify best legal practices for business owners in the construction field. Our posts will be broad and varied, from labor and employment litigation to detailed documentation issues involved in collections cases. We are pleased to share our knowledge of the construction industry with you through the Beyond the Scope — A Construction Litigation Blog.

If you are an insurance professional, look forward to timely and pertinent updates on this blog. But no matter your industry, property and liability insurance is probably an integral part of it. Cummins & White recognizes this.

We have the unique position of not only knowing insurance law, but making it. The firm is a leader in developing and implementing new insurance law, theories and strategies in both property and liability cases. It is only natural that our practice evolves to this new and exciting venue.
