Architect and Engineer Liability Defense for Design and Construction Claims in Louisiana
Claims against architects, engineers, and design professionals often involve highly technical issues, complex project histories, and significant financial exposure. Keogh Cox represents design professionals and their insurers in litigation across Louisiana, handling disputes tied to construction defects, delays, and professional liability.
Our team combines legal experience with technical understanding, allowing us to evaluate claims in the context of how projects are actually designed, managed, and built. We work closely with clients to assess scope of work, identify key facts early, and develop defense strategies that address both the legal and engineering aspects of each case.
These matters frequently involve multiple parties, overlapping responsibilities, and competing expert opinions. We focus on early analysis, strategic use of experts, and targeted motion practice to narrow or resolve claims efficiently, while remaining fully prepared to take cases through trial when necessary.
Our work includes:
- Professional liability defense for architects, engineers, and land surveyors
- Design defect and construction-related claims
- Errors and omissions and negligence allegations
- Construction delay and project performance disputes
- Breach of contract and misrepresentation claims
- Building code, ADA, and regulatory compliance issues
- Third-party claims involving personal injury or property damage
- Licensing and disciplinary matters before professional boards
Keogh Cox provides disciplined, technically informed defense for design professionals, helping clients navigate complex claims and protect both their practice and professional reputation.
