The November 11, 2011 edition of The Lawyers Weekly features Samantha Ip discussing her career as a lawyer in the article Pre-teen dream job a reality. In particular, Samantha reflects on how she came to specialize in Construction law, and comments on how the practice area has evolved with the changing economy, from deficiency and delay claims during the 1990’s, to a rising demand for contract advice in the mid-2000’s, and an increased focus on liens, unpaid work, and risk management today.
