Alex grew up working in Colorado’s construction industry, starting in high school and continuing through his first year of law school. Alex’s legal career consists of advising clients through all phases of dispute resolution, real estate development, and transactional work, including leading a team for trial or arbitration, facilitating alternative dispute resolutions, performing real estate due diligence, entitling real property, easement negotiations, and drafting and negotiating construction contracts.
I grew up working in construction and gained familiarity with the industry early on. I always enjoyed it and especially loved how, in construction, you could see the results of your work. It’s really gratifying when you drive past a building or project and can say, “I helped build that.”
When I started law school, I was still working construction during the day and attending school at night. So, construction law was a natural area of concentration for me. I completed an externship focusing on construction and real estate law at a small firm, and then landed a clerkship here at BBG where I found my people.
My advice would be to join and get involved in industry groups. For me, being an active member of the AGC Future Leaders Forum is a great way to build relationships, network, and to learn about and understand our clients and the challenges they face in the field.
My claim to fame is that I can drive a Zamboni. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time at the hockey rink, on the golf course, and on the slopes with my family.
