Addressing Non Payment Disputes

Contractors and owners often get creative when it comes to withholding payment owed to contractors and subcontractors, but the law offers considerable protections, including:

Mechanic’s Liens

Mechanic’s liens offer a robust remedy in the face of nonpayment, but proceeding in accordance with the law and relevant deadlines is paramount. Filing errors or delays can thwart your ability to recover payment, which makes working closely with a trusted construction litigation attorney to your advantage. 

Defending Yourself in the Face of Construction Defect Claims

The Colorado Construction Defect Action and Reform Act (CDARA) outlines the procedures in relation to notice, inspection, and remedy required for taking a claim to court. Remaining within these legal boundaries is key to your claim’s success and requires careful review of the underlying contracts, the involved insurance program, and all correspondence between you and the company from whom you seek payment. A savvy construction litigation lawyer is standing by to gather and skillfully compile the necessary information and documentation, knowledgeably analyze the legal concern, and help determine your best path forward – whether that means negotiations, arbitration, mediation, or litigation.
