Civil Engineer

CLIENT SUMMARY

In 2013, two civil engineers decided to take a step of faith and start a consulting engineering firm. Those two engineers were Jeremy McMath and Chase Cotton. Jeremy McMath is the sole owner of Civil Southeast, LLC. Civil Southeast serves clients throughout South Alabama with offices in Andalusia, Prattville and Daphne. Jeremy passionately leads the Civil Southeast team with a desire to serve others and bring glory to God. He genuinely loves people and desires to do work with excellence. Jeremy and Chase believe God used their prior engineering and life experiences, a solid foundation of trust, and a shared reliance upon God to help them build a team that makes an eternal impact on clients, sub-consultants, and team members.
