With counties and cities shutting down under various orders from government officials, how do you keep your construction projects, men and materials moving? One way may be a hall pass. Today we talk to Justin Tolley of The Barthet Construction Law Firm about various orders in South Florida, why construction has been deemed essential, and how to use a “hall pass” so your workers can pass through checkpoints.
