KG Law attorneys represent their public agency clients in litigation matters, including defense of claims for Eminent Domain, Construction law, Inverse condemnation, Dangerous condition, Civil Rights, Americans with Disabilities Act, and personal injury.  Acting in its capacity as General Counsel, KG Law may also recommend engagement of special counsel where appropriate and will oversee such special counsel.

Eminent Domain

The acquisition of property for a public project can be an expensive undertaking.  KG Law attorneys have experience negotiating settlements and where necessary, taking cases to trial.  

Construction Law

KG Law attorneys specialize in representing public agencies in disputes with contractors who work on public works projects.  We have experience regarding change order disputes, contract disputes, liquidated damages, mistakes, delays, and contract modification.

Inverse Condemnation

Sometimes the unforeseen happens and when it does, experienced legal counsel such as KG Law is necessary to defend its public agency clients against claims for inverse condemnation.  KG Law attorneys are skilled in assessing a situation early and helping to identify ways to minimize the cost and expense of such claims for inverse condemnation.

Dangerous Condition

Public agencies are only liable as expressly provider under the Government Claims Act.  KG Law attorneys are experienced at identifying immunities and other defenses to dangerous conditions such as auto accidents or slip and falls.

Civil Rights

KG Law attorneys have experience in Civil Rights Cases, particularly police officer 42 USC 1983 cases involving allegations against both individual officers and police departments.  KG Law attorneys also have experience in other civil rights cases such as discrimination cases (race, gender, religion).

Americans with Disabilities Act

At KG Law, we know both state and federal laws that protect against disability discrimination and will defend our public agencies clients against such discriminatory allegations.

Personal Injury

If a public agency or its employees are sued for allegedly harming someone, KG Law specializes in formulating defenses.  Where possible, KG Law attorneys seek to challenge liability, but in all cases seek to limit damages to what is rightfully owed under the law.   KG Law also has a proven track record striking plaintiffs’ requests for punitive damages in negligence cases.
