Tarter Krinsky & Drogin announced that Peter E. Sayer has joined the firm as counsel in its Construction practice.
Sayer advises clients in construction, commercial litigation, distressed real estate and transactional matters. He assists property owners, developers, contractors, engineers, architects and other real estate and design professionals in resolving complex disputes from inception to conclusion through negotiation, alternate dispute resolution (arbitration and mediation) and litigation, regularly appearing before state and civil courts throughout New York.
Sayer handles property damage, breach of contract claims, commercial landlord-tenant proceedings, mechanic’s liens (filing and foreclosure actions), RPAPL § 881 proceedings, matters involving condominium and cooperative apartments (including nonjudicial foreclosure on cooperative units) and judgment enforcement.
Sayer also advises on the drafting and negotiation of contracts and license agreements critical to construction projects, with a focus on insurance coverage, indemnity, defense obligations, IP rights and limitations on liability.
“Peter’s addition reflects our continued focus on deepening capabilities in areas where clients need sophisticated, full-service counsel,” said Alan Tarter, managing partner of Tarter Krinsky & Drogin. “His vast litigation and transactional experience aligns well with our approach to offering comprehensive legal support at every stage of a matter’s life cycle.”
Sayer joins the firm’s growing Construction Practice, which added a partner, a counsel, and three associates since 2024, bringing significant experience across construction litigation, transactional matters and license agreement work, collectively enhancing the practice’s market position and ability to support clients with complex legal needs.
Sayer earned his J.D. from Brooklyn Law School and is admitted to practice in New York and in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York.
