Denver Construction Contract Lawyers
Contracts are a core part of your construction business, and you can trust Jorgensen, Brownell, & Pepin, P.C. to handle these important documents for you. We’ve created thousands of construction contracts over the last 30 years and have forms for every project level, from a simple floor refinishing to the initial construction of complex commercial buildings.
The Importance of a Good Contract
Comprehensive contracts are critical to keeping projects running smoothly. A good contract from a knowledgeable construction contract attorney will ensure all parties understand their responsibilities and know what will happen in the event of unforeseen circumstances. They can address important, but often neglected issues regarding timing, access, warranties, collections remedies, and attorney’s fees provisions.
Prepare for the Unexpected
An unexpected natural disaster, workforce reduction, or supply chain disruption can upend months of careful planning. Your Denver construction contract attorney can draft language to address these and other situations that may arise during the course of your project.
Address Important Issues
A construction contract should also address and clarify each party’s role in completing the project and the deadlines that must be met.
Thoroughly drafted construction contracts will also clearly identify any specific materials or processes that must be used to complete the project.
If a supplier, contractor, or subcontractor is offering a guarantee or warranty on their product or workmanship, the construction contract should make this plain as well.
Allowances & Land Owners
A well-written contract can help manage the costs of your next construction project.
Allowances specify the funds available for specific aspects of the construction project, giving all parties a better understanding of the project’s scope and potential cost.
If you are building on or moving materials across another party’s property, knowing who owns the land and what their rights are is vital. Your project may be halted, and expensive litigation may ensue if appropriate contracts with landowners are not secured.
