The Right Attorney is an Asset to Your Outcome
Construction defect claims are complex, often involving multiple parties, technical construction issues, and building code requirements. Resolving these complexities requires the right attorney, one who understands legal statutes and the specialized areas of law regarding construction defects. Horn Williamson was built on our attorneys’ knowledge of the law related to defect claims, and we understand the realities of construction.
Determining Cause and Damages is Essential
Construction defects can occur from several causes. Contractors may not follow building code requirements or may perform their work negligently. Some construction defects may result from improper design, while others may stem from unforeseen site conditions or material manufacturing problems. Construction defects may be discovered during construction or, in many cases, not until after a building is fully constructed and occupied.
Horn Williamson works with industry professionals and experts to analyze the cause of construction defects and determine damages. We use this information, combined with our knowledge of relevant case law, to achieve the best resolution for our client’s needs, whether through mediation, arbitration, or litigation.
