Commercial Real Estate Law & Construction Litigation

Wednesday, October 21, 2009 by Russell Stanaland

In my last post on legal issues that may arise in commercial real estate transactions, I discussed possible scenarios surrounding LLC ownership. Another legal issue with which an experienced San Francisco real estate lawyer is familiar is construction litigation.

A construction dispute can prove very costly to both investor and contractor. In order to resolve such disputes efficiently and affordably, both parties should retain legal representation. Parties involved in such a lawsuit can include investors, business owners, general contractors, or subcontractors.

Issues pertaining to construction litigation may involve, but not be limited to:

Claims of faulty construction levied by business owners of investors
Disputes regarding design approval or payment
Reports filed with the contractor's license board (CSLB)
Contractual warranty issues and claims
Insurance issues and claims
