Their article gives insights into the legal landscape of construction projects in Tennessee for both public and private projects. Tim and Logan discuss key state laws and industry practices, including prompt payment requirements, retainage rules, project delivery systems, licensing standards, the enforceability of provisions such as liquidated damages, limitations of liability, and no-damages-for-delay clauses.
