Made up of an exceptional mix of legal firms, in-house counsel, and forensic accountants, the Legal Advisory Committee (LAC) works to understand the impact of new laws, regulations, and judicial decisions. We urge all member companies, particularly those with general counsel on staff, to join the LAC to network and address pertinent construction industry issues.
Attorney members can earn MCLE (legal continuing education) credit for participating in LAC committee meetings, certain seminars and the LAC Annual Legal Retreat. For more information, or to join, email Mary Alyssa Rancier at RancierM@agc-ca.org.
We believe that if a government agency is going to implement a mandated labor agreement, then contractors must be at the table to provide practical and real-world input on how construction projects are actually managed and executed. Lack of contractor input on such agreements can erode the benefits of the competitive bidding process, and cause resources to be spent on additional administrative requirements, rather than the actual construction of the project itself. Agencies and their projects directly benefit from the expertise provided by the contractors who manage day-to-day construction processes. PLAs affect both union and open shop contractors, and AGC strives to ensure that the interests of all industry stakeholders are addressed.
