Getting the job done on time and at cost is a condition of your contract. Construction contracts generally set up schedules for the completion of the work. When problems arise and delays happen, we can use your contract to spell out the obligations and responsibilities of your contractors. If a contractor does not complete work on time or the operation is delayed, there are several options a property owner may pursue. For example, the property owner may pursue liquidated damages for a delay by the contractor. Liquidated damages impose a dollar amount that the contractor will be required to pay for each day of delay.
Alternatively, our construction law attorneys can provide other options for property owners to pursue if scheduling and payment problems by the contractor occurs. For example, the property owner may rescind the contract or terminate the contractor and bring in a different contractor to finish the work. Our construction law attorneys can assist you to consider your options. Additionally, we can pursue mediation, negotiation, and litigation as the circumstances merit. |
