Contracts

Consider your contracts and always have an attorney review any contracts relating to commercial or residential property. The contract provides important material terms and conditions relating to timely completion of the project, substantial completion of the project, payment and final inspections and punch list. In addition, warranty issues relating to material and labor for the project are also included within the contract. Most importantly, in the event of a dispute, the contract sets forth where the dispute will be adjudicated. For example, will it be in a Court or does it call for arbitration? Further, if it is in the Court, will it be a jury trial or bench trial? What jurisdiction? These are all very important issues that need to be negotiated before the project begins.

There are also Consumer Protection Laws in place that must be considered at the time the contract is entered into. It is important to contact an attorney, such as McGrath Law Firm, to protect your rights and your project going forward.

You do not have to let the excitement of improvements and construction overwhelm you.  A properly prepared and reviewed contract will set forth the terms that are acceptable to you  An attorney can help you make sure that accomplished prior to the start of the project and make sure your legal rights are protected.
