Construction Defect & Warranty Claims
In construction projects, claims for construction defects or warranty coverage often can arise. These claims may be made at anytime during construction, at the completion of punch list items, or several years after final completion. In some cases, the claims made by a dissatisfied owner may be unreasonable and unrelated to the specific scope of work required of the contractor or are beyond the warranty coverage. We strive to recognize which defects and warranty claims are proper, whether such claims exceed the scope of work or warranty coverage, and whether such claims are timely presented or brought within the proper forum.
Frequently, subcontractors are the target of construction defect claims often including claims of indemnification. Indemnification is an ever-changing area of the law and we offer our clients the most up-to-date advice in this important area.
