General Questions

What is construction law?
Do you have to get different permits for constructing homes and office units?
I’m looking to renovate my kitchen and bathrooms completely. What clauses should I include in the contract to protect my legal rights?
Is a contractor bound by his written estimate of a job?
The contractor won’t complete my home repairs unless I pay more money. I can’t live in an unfinished kitchen, and feel I am over the barrel. What are my options?
What do I look for in the construction contract to protect me from delays?
How can I ensure that the builder doesn’t botch the job?
What is the best forum to resolve disputes?
Is there a government agency that might help me in my claim?
What if I decide I want the house built differently after the builder has already begun the work?
What if the subcontractor (like the plumber, painter, etc.) Threatens to sue me or file a lien on my house?
I am a builder. I’m worried that there might be hard rock under the ground that might cause me to hire a jackhammer service, which could unexpectedly increase my costs and ruin my profit. What do I do?
Should I have insurance on the building?
How do I know the contractor is licensed and bonded?
I don’t build houses, I build fences. Do I still need to be licensed?
I already have the contractor’s license in my name. But I want to form a corporation - what do I do?
Does the contractor have to give a warranty?
