Who should I call when I have a major construction problem ?

I am seeing more and more significant construction problems with houses.  It is important that you seek the guidance of an experienced construction attorney when the problem becomes evident.  In NC, you have certain rights if the problems are reported in the first year after completion of the house.   You also can bring certain claims in the first three years.  

We are seeing construction situations where the general contractor has lost his license in the past, but is still building.  We also see many contractors that do not carry insurance to cover negligent construction.   This type of coverage is not mandatory in North Carolina.  Ask the contractor that you are considering hiring, to provide you information on all of his insurance related to construction.  

If you have a major problem after construction, and the contractor will not remedy it, contact an experienced construction attorney.  In our firm, Ron Trimyer and Brad Schulz regularly review and handle these claims.  Brad Schulz 

Do I need an attorney ?

In this economic day and time, if you are married, and are considering separating, you should at least have an initial consultation with an attorney.  Although many people are concerned about the distribution of certain property items, the debt issues can be just as important, especially where people are "upside down" in th asset.  Additionally, it goes without saying that when custody issues are involved, you need advice from a practicing attorney.  Although folks are looking to cutback on certain expenses these days, good legal advice should not be one of those items.  Brad Schulz
