John Mark Goodman and Lee-Ann Brown Share Legal Analysis in Construction Dive on $2.3 Billion Florida Highway Project Dispute

Legal analysis of the I-4 Ultimate Project litigation from Bradley partner John Mark Goodman and counsel Lee-Ann Brown was quoted in Construction Dive, framing the dispute as a warning about the risks associated with termination tactics on massive public-private partnership projects, or P3s.

The underlying project began as a $2.3 billion Florida highway reconstruction expected to generate roughly $255 million in contractor profit but ultimately deteriorated into more than $500 million in losses and extensive litigation among the joint venture partners.

“The case is a must-read glimpse behind the scenes of a mega project in trouble due to unexpected cost overruns,” the attorneys wrote. “The case is a cautionary tale to contractors and attorneys in complex construction disputes to carefully consider the grounds and consequences of termination before you pull the trigger.”
