Effective Legal Solutions for Landowners

In the case of delayed construction projects or when contractors do not complete the work they promised on time, you may have grounds to file a claim. You have legal options, including pursuing liquidated damages. These damages impose a monetary amount that the contractor will be responsible to pay for every day the project is delayed.

Other solutions may include rescinding the construction contract or firing the contractor to bring in a new contractor to complete the project. We will help you look at all your options to ensure you are within your legal rights when it comes to a contractor’s errors or negligence.

To pursue damages, you may consider the following:

• Litigation when contractors will not admit fault or do not understand that their delays have put you out for significant amounts of money due to their delay. Litigation is also necessary when settlements cannot be reached out of court and you need a jury and judge to make the final decision.
• Mediation when you may be able to come to an amicable solution without going to court. During the mediation process, your attorney will act as a neutral third-party to guide you and encourage conversation. They can answer your legal questions but will not take a side as to who is in the wrong. If mediation is successful, you may save time, money, and additional stress.
