Frequently Asked Questions
Q. What is Construction Law ?
A.
Construction Law is a legal, problem solving approach to construction
and real estate development issues which emphasizes loss prevention and
maximization of profits. Too often clients wait until there are
problems with either their builder or their project before seeking
legal counsel. A simple, preliminary review of a proposed construction
contract, scope of work specification, or even a second opinion of a
feasability study, prior to initiating a project, can save a client a
significant amount of money and grief.
Q. Do you represent only builders or developers ?
A.
No, my representation includes the interests of a number of
participants in the real estate development process. Subcontractors who
have been denied payment, due to conflicts between a general contractor
and a primary client, have been helped by our services. Homeowners,
both individual and associations, have benefitted in seeking relief
from construction defects and inadequate construction warranties.
Design professionals, architects and engineers, can have their
malpractice claims analyzed as well as prosecute for copyright and
trademark infringement.
Q. What about establishing lien rights or filing or removing a lien ?
A. Liens
are inherently statutory, in nature, and the procedures to follow, in
either perfecting or removing a lien, tend to be State specific. It is
not possible to give a "one size fits all" type of answer to that
question, but I will work with you in helping you establish your
rights, by way of the specific statute.
