About Craig Martin

Construction Mediator | Effective Problem Solver I Speaker I c••••••@ldmlaw.comI help attorneys representing contractors, builders, and designers resolve high-stakes disputes through mediation and arbitration. Whether it\'s a multi-million dollar delay claim, a payment dispute threatening a project, or a defect claim spiraling out of control, I\'ve seen how these conflicts drain resources and relationships.I\'ve helped resolve cases where projects were stalled for years—getting them settled in weeks. I\'ve mediated disputes where parties weren\'t speaking to each other and walked them to handshake agreements. I\'ve arbitrated complex defect claims that saved everyone from years of expensive litigation. What sets me apart? I\'ve been in your shoes. I know the pressure your clients face, the technical complexity of construction projects, and what it takes to actually move entrenched parties toward resolution. I don\'t just split the difference—I dig into the real issues and find solutions that work.When I\'m not mediating or arbitrating, you\'ll find me representing contractors to resolve their disputes (old habits die hard) or mentoring young attorneys navigating their first construction cases.
