3 Valuable Resources for Contractors Looking to Maintain Legal Compliance

Maintaining legal compliance is essential for any contractor that wants to juggle multiple projects while growing their business. Unfortunately, this can be difficult in the fast-paced construction industry, where things can turn at the drop of a hat. You need access to accurate information if you want to remain compliant with the various laws governing the construction industry, including those on the local, state, and federal level; but good advice can be hard to find, and misinformation could lead to the end of your career as a contractor.

In this brief article, a Jacksonville construction lawyer from Cotney Attorneys & Consultants will discuss three valuable resources for contractors who need help maintaining legal compliance. From podcasts to attorney-sponsored YouTube videos and obtaining advice from actual Jacksonville construction lawyers, this article serves as your hub for seeking industry-leading advice.

1. Construction-Related Podcasts

Podcasts are a great way to learn essential industry lessons while driving to and from work, during office time, and even when you’re relaxing at home. Some of the best podcasts for contractors include:
