The son of a third-generation general contractor, Chad Wilson spent many of his summers on the construction site. He uses this practical knowledge to his advantage as an attorney, cutting through the litigation gamesmanship to the core of the issues.
Prior to joining Lanak & Hanna, Chad worked for nearly seven years as a litigator specializing in the representation of architects and engineers. He consistently obtained favorable results on behalf of his clients at all stages, from pre-claim to summary judgment to trial. Chad’s extensive experience representing design professionals gives him an additional advantage in handling construction claims.
In addition to California and the District of Columbia, Chad is licensed in Hawaii, where he handles contract claims and job rights on behalf of Lanak & Hanna’s clients with interests there. He also serves as a certified small claims mediator for the Orange County Superior Court.

We worked with Chad on a tough business litigation case. Chad was honest and communicated with us about what was going on at all stages. Eventually, we won, in no small part because of our counsel. We'll be back Chad!
