Hello. I’m Adam King. It can be difficult for a  construction business or new venture to find efficient and cost-effective construction lawyer.  Most law firms cater to large businesses because they typically have numerous active legal matters at one time and they are not as sensitive to legal rates and costs. This approach does not work for new or small businesses who need efficient and cost-effective construction law assistance in Florida.

My experience includes advising and representing businesses, project owners, developers, general contractors, subcontractors, insurance carriers, and sureties with respect to commercial developments, high-rise buildings, hotels, condominium projects, homeowners’ association complexes, apartments, custom homes, and environmental remediation sites. A key focus of this  work included evaluating and prosecuting indemnity, additional insured, subrogation rights, and negligence claims against design professionals, engineers, contractors, subcontractors, and product manufacturers.

If you need assistance with your construction business or claim, schedule your consultation today! I look forward to working with you.

Construction law generally involves the legal issues relating to the construction of a home, building, or other structure.  This includes the plans, specifications, contracts, and agreements for the development of a project; disputes, damages, and issues that arise during construction of a project; and defects and claims that arise after construction of a project.  In most cases, one party has not complied with its obligations to properly design or build the project or has not paid the companies who performed work.  Construction law also includes various insurance and bond claims that arise out of construction projects.

Construction lawyers assist with the review and development of the various contracts and agreements necessary to build homes and other projects; they analyze and help resolve disputes, damages, and issues that arise during construction of a project; and they represent the parties either asserting or defending claims, lawsuits, arbitrations, and other proceedings relating to defects and claims that arise after construction of a  project.

The most important consideration is the safety of owners and the general public.  Contractors must comply with laws, regulations, Building Codes, standards, and plans so that projects are safely constructed and will perform as designed and intended.  Additionally, whether you are building or buying an existing home, building, or other project, it requires a significant investment.  It is important that construction is properly performed so the project performs as intended.  If not, you have limited time periods within which to assert claims against responsible parties so that you can either have the defects repaired or you can obtain an award of your damages.

It depends on the type of claim you have and your relationship with the builder.  If you are the original owner or project developer, you may have contract or warranty rights against the builder for a specified length of time.  Even if you do not have a warranty or guaranty, you typically have 4 years from when you first know about the defect or the associated damages to bring a claim.  However, in most cases, the Florida statutes will not allow you to recover damages for claims brought later than 10 years after a project’s completion.  This is a very fact dependent analysis, so you should consult a licensed attorney for assistance.

If the builder provided a warranty or guaranty, the first course of action typically is to request that the builder or the responsible subcontractor inspect and resolve the potential defect.  If that is unsuccessful, you can evaluate whether the builder complied with the building code, plans, specifications, product manufacturer installation instructions, and other requirements.  If not, you may be able to recover the reasonable costs of correcting the defective work.  To do so, you may need to file a lawsuit or arbitration proceeding against the responsible parties, their insurance carriers, and/or their bonding companies.  There are strict time limits within which you must assert your claim, so when you first suspect you may have a construction law claim, it is important to consult with a licensed attorney.

The time you have to file a claim is determined by the type of claim you have.  In Florida, construction defect claims typically have to be filed within 4 years from when you first know about the defect or the associated damages.  Florida also has a “Statute of Repose” that bars certain claims after 10 years from the date of actual possession by the owner, the date of the issuance of a certificate of occupancy, the date of abandonment of construction if not completed, or the date of completion of the contract or termination of the contract between the professional engineer, registered architect, or licensed contractor and his or her employer, whichever date is latest.  Some claims, like payment bond and lien claims, need to be filed within one year.  This is a very technical area of law.  Therefore, when you first suspect you may have a construction law claim, it is important to consult with a licensed attorney and determine, if you want to assert a claim, how much time you have to do so.  If you miss the deadline to file a claim, you may not be able to recover any damages.

Yes.  There are a number of claims that subsequent purchasers and owners may be able to assert against a builder, including claims for violating the building code and negligence.

Reputable contractors will stand behind their work and will correct identifiable defects and deficiencies in their work.  In most cases, a contractor hires subcontractors to perform work and supply materials, and the contractor can assist you in getting a subcontractor to correct any defective work.

Many defect claims are resolved voluntarily and only require a telephone call or letter.  Additionally, before suing a contractor, Florida statutes generally require you to provide the contractor with written notice of the defect and that you give the contractor an opportunity to cure the defect.  If these efforts fail, it may be necessary to file a lawsuit or arbitration proceeding.  The fees and costs for such a claim are dependent on a number of factors, including the size and complexity of the project, the nature and severity of the alleged defects, and the number of parties involved.  Before filing a lawsuit, you need to consider the likelihood of success and the expected costs.  Once we have the details regarding your claim, we can provide an estimate of these costs.
