Problems that arise during construction
Many of the conflicts which arise during construction stem from contract law issues:
- The homeowner and contractor do not document the change orders, so the timing or duration of the project becomes an issue.
- The contractor has failed to release the schedule of values to the homeowner itemizing costs of labor and materials.
- The construction project does not follow the agreed-upon design and plan.
- The construction project does not follow agreed-upon quality of materials.
- Payments are delayed.

We recognize that conflict can be costly. That is why we recommend that all parties sit down together as soon as possible to informally resolve the dispute. Our attorneys can bring in a neutral third-party negotiator who can help the parties find common ground and hammer out an acceptable solution.
