Our firm represents clients in a wide variety of construction law matters, including:

• Contract Disputes: Construction contracts can be complicated and never cover every issue that can arise during construction. An experienced attorney can help identify potential issues before they arise and clarify vague and ambiguous language. Change orders are inevitable, but proper communication and documentation can avoid disputes.
• Contract Performance Issues: We represent clients in cases involving delay, defect claims and disputes regarding the scope of work set forth in the construction documents.
• Professional Liability: We represent contractors and property owners in disputes relating to the defective preparation of drawings and specifications.
• Prompt Payment Claims: We represent clients in disputes regarding payment for services rendered and materials supplied. These disputes can involve the filing and removal of Mechanics' Liens.
• Home Defects: Our attorneys assist in claims involving builders' and manufacturers' warranties and construction defects, including structural leaks, moisture intrusion, mold, damage caused by settling foundations, defective construction and installation.
