Since the emergence of the Chinese Drywall crisis, Wolfe Law Group has been a leader in providing information to builders, suppliers, contractors and other construction participants about how they are affected by the crisis.

Those who may have supplied or installed Chinese Drywall have concerns about their legal rights and obligations, and are interested in learning more about what type of legal options are available to them.

This blog will focus on these topics, and promote the firm’s new Chinese Drywall Defense practice area.

The emergence of Green Building and LEED accreditation nationwide has changed building practices. This is especially true in the state of Louisiana, where Hurricane Katrina relief money has attracted non-profit groups interesting in building the city back green.

Contemporaneously, however, emerging legal issues are coming into focus that are specific to green building.

This blog will track the progress of green building in Louisiana and provide insight on the legal components of “building green” in the state.

The Brazil Construction Law Blog will provide insight on construction law development and news in the country of Brazil, including information about international arbitration and the laws applicable to companies who are interested in doing business in Brazil.

While the blog is written in English, and written to an English-speaking audience, it can be translated into Portuguese and Spanish.

The blog intends to speak to an audience of businesses interested in foreign contracting, international joint ventures and international construction risk management.

ABA Journal Publishes an Article about Wolfe Law Group's Hurr. Gustav Operations

Wolfe Law Group is one of the few law firms in New Orleans that stayed open throughout Hurricane Gustav, and the surrounding evacuation.

Our attorneys didn’t “ride out the storm,” but through the efficient use of technology, we didn’t skip a beat.

Not only was our client data backed up and protected in the event of catastrophe, but because of our forward-minded practices, our data was backed up, protected and usable during the storm.

Through laptops, voice-over IP telephone systems, and advanced folder syncing, and our second office in Seattle, WA, our attorneys and staff were able to handle client emergencies and needs without limitation.

The American Bar Association’s ABA Journal published an article about our operations during the hurricane: Law Firm Uses Technology to Operate During Hurricane Gustav.

With regard to the firm’s accessibility during the storm, the ABA Journal reported:

The firm is also on the leading edge of mobile communications, which may be of particular importance when clients and potential clients are away from their computers—but with their cell phones and BlackBerrys—during Hurricane Gustav and its immediate aftermath.

It launched a mobile website on Aug. 1, with all the content of its regular website formatted for the smaller screens of Internet-capable cell phones and BlackBerrys, according to its blog.

It also has a Twitter feed—a microblogging service in which messages can be no longer than 140 characters, but which can be updated and read from any mobile device.

Reinforcing its reputation as a leading-edge law practice, Wolfe Law Group launches an iPhone and mobile page at http://m.wolfelaw.com. The site provides information about the firm, commentary on construction news and legal issues, and makes contacting the firm as easy as pressing a button.

NEW ORLEANS, LA (WolfeLaw) August 1, 2008 — Today, Wolfe Law Group launched its new mobile website, http://m.wolfelaw.com.

The mobile site is designed for viewing on mobile devices like the iPhone, Blackberry and more. From the mobile page, users can read the Wolfe Law Group blog, leave a public comment or instantly call our offices.

Speaking about the new mobile page, Scott Wolfe, Jr., founding member of the firm, stated as follows:

Our goal was to give those contractors out in the field an easy way to read up on construction law issues and contact a construction attorney while on-the-go. More contractors than ever are using mobile phones out in the field, and access to this type of information on-the-go is becoming as necessary as general online access.

The new mobile page is another way the firm is maintaining its position as one of the more progressive law firm websites in the country.
