Craig Dirrim, a partner in the firm’s construction law practice group, recently authored the article “Anticipating and Protecting from Cost Increases Due to Tariffs,” for the Associated General Contractors - Nebraska Building Chapter Spring 2025 Newsletter. In construction, whether dealing with federal or non-federal contracts, tariffs on imported goods and products can significantly impact project costs.
