Jennifer M. Horn is an accomplished attorney with comprehensive experience in client representation and litigation. She has built her practice representing owners, construction managers, contractors, subcontractors, suppliers, sureties, and homeowners in matters arising from public and private construction projects.

Jennifer leads the Horn Williamson Construction Practice Group.  She has extensive skill representing clients with delay claims and routinely works with expert witnesses to prosecute claims for delay, inefficiency, disruption, out-of-sequence work and construction means and methods. She has frequently been called upon to analyze situations as they are developing and assist clients with documenting delays, proposed change orders, default, termination, and other typical issues that may result in a claim.

Jennifer’s understanding of building envelope defects including defects to stucco, cultured stone, brick, siding and EIFS, has proved invaluable to the successful resolution of numerous negotiations with builders.
