Sean P. Higgins is a partner at Harris Winick Harris LLP. His practice focuses on construction, transportation, and complex commercial litigation.
After graduating from the University of Michigan Law School, Sean joined a boutique law firm on the East Coast where his practice concentrated on construction law, public contracts, and commercial litigation. While practicing on the East Coast, Sean litigated a residential condominium dispute over leaks stemming from common elements to a settlement and managed all aspects of litigation across three states against two judgment debtors that attempted to shelter assets to defeat their creditors.
During his time at Harris Winick Harris, Sean prosecuted a multi-million-dollar dispute involving a failed HVAC system in a luxury apartment complex to a favorable settlement. Sean also reached a favorable settlement for a client seeking substantial damages for construction and design defects that resulted in the flooding of a central utility room in a luxury apartment complex in Boston. Sean served on the trial team for a nine-figure litigation involving construction defects in a luxury hotel in Hawaii and personally oversaw the prosecution of a tile defect claim valued at over $40,000,000.00.
In addition to his experience with construction litigation, Sean also represents clients in transportation litigation with a particular focus on the rail sector.
