Tariff-Proof Your Business: A Construction Lawyer's Playbook
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Suspendisse varius enim in eros.
While the details have shifted over the past few months, there’s no doubt that all the talk about tariffs has caused uncertainty for the small business community. Especially contractors.
And, whether the USA’s plan remains the same or not, this whole situation got me thinking: what exactly should contractors DO to minimize the impact of new tariffs on their materials, supply chain and profit margins?
My guest today, Trent Cotney, is back on the show to help us answer that question.
Trent is a board-certified construction lawyer, author and co-host of the #1 construction law podcast, Law and Mortar.
Today, we cover:
- What tariffs actually are, and how they will impact on our industry
- What clauses you can put in your contracts to protect yourself from tariff shocks
- Trent’s predictions on what’s coming next based on his time spent in Washington DC.
And a whole lot more.
