There are many laws and regulations affecting those who work in the construction field as well as individuals who hire contractors to complete work for them. Apfelbaum Law can assist you and guide you through a variety of construction law matters.
Florida construction laws encompass homeowner rights, liabilities, bids, and disputes. Homeowners have rights to compensation for construction-related injuries and to contractor payments. Architects, engineers, construction companies, and subcontractors have similar rights.
Contracts in Florida are complex, especially when it comes to bids and projects. They often protect the interests of both parties. It is important to consult with a professional for clarity on contract specifics.
Construction project disputes allow property owners to sue if terms aren’t met, while contractors can sue for unpaid bills. Before going to trial or negotiating a settlement, it is best to consult with a construction lawyer to understand the conditions of the contract and any potential compensation.
Unpaid work for hired professionals, recompense for incomplete work, and expenses for goods or equipment not received are all possible damages to recover in the event that the court determines that there has been a breach of contract.
Clients frequently ask about liens, either because they believe they may require one or because a contractor has put one on their property. There are several rules regulating mechanic’s liens in Florida. It is highly advisable to get the assistance of an attorney to help you through every specific situation.
