Construction Law
Anyone who has tried to construct a building in California can attest that the process is full of red tape. The best way to do that is to hire an attorney who specializes in construction law.
Do I need a construction attorney?
While an attorney may not be required for every situation involving your construction, there will inevitably be situations where they are. For instance, if you are dealing with contracts that you cannot say you fully understand, an attorney is a worthwhile asset to help interpret them. It would not be the first time someone tried to deal with a contract dispute or negotiation in order to save money, only to come out with the short end of the stick as a result.
If you go to court or someone takes you to court, whether you retain an attorney will depend on how serious the court case is. If you are going to small-claims court, hiring an attorney may not be worth the cost you would incur. If the court case would be more costly, however, hiring an attorney is your best bet. Not only can your attorney manage to either get the other person to drop the care or agree to a settlement, but if it goes to court, they will be more likely to score you a win than if you represented yourself.
While some issues may require an attorney, not all will. For example, if you are in a payment dispute, there are various mechanisms available to you to help make the process simple, cheap, and quick for you to accomplish.
