Construction Litigation

Construction litigation requires knowing the law and the project.

Construction litigation involves formal court disputes arising from construction projects. These cases may involve lien foreclosure, lien defense, breach of contract, payment disputes, bond claims, construction defects, delay claims, change orders, retainage, termination, fraud, licensing issues, or project closeout disputes.

Litigation may be necessary when a party needs to enforce a Claim of Lien, challenge a lien through Construction Lien Defense, pursue Payment Bond Claims, recover unpaid contract balances, defend against defective work allegations, or resolve a serious construction dispute that cannot be settled informally.

Florida construction litigation requires both legal and project-level analysis. The pleadings matter, but so do contracts, scopes of work, drawings, invoices, payment applications, change orders, daily reports, photographs, inspections, permits, emails, schedules, expert reports, and witness testimony.
