Smith Currie Oles

Construction and government contracts specialist Smith Currie Oles advises contractors, engineers, suppliers and owners on both transactional and litigious project matters. The practice is led by the firm’s managing partner, Atlanta-based Eric Nelson, who concentrates on federal construction, healthcare, and EPC project claims. San Francisco’s Daniel McLennon and Washington DC’s Shannon Briglia represent clients in contract, bond and surety conflicts before courts and alternative dispute venues. Lauren McLaughlin, also DC-based, assists subcontractors, sureties and designers during public and private developments; throughout projects, she works to mitigate the risk of litigation.
