Effectively Managing Disputes between Contractors

aboutbanner

The Watkins Firm has decades of experience and expertise effectively managing disputes between contractors in San Diego.  Disputes between a homeowner and a general contractor, or between a general contractor and a sub-contractor as well as contractors on a job site require prompt resolution and effective legal representation.  Time is money in any construction dispute and resolving contractor disputes quickly and in a cost-effective manner is the key to these disputes and lawsuits.

Many disputes center on issues of payment or the quality and timeliness of work on the project.  Poor workmanship, failure to perform and breach of contract cases expose contractors to potentially heavy financial damages as well as the loss of time and other business opportunities.  It is much easier in this day and age to make damaging comments about you as a contractor online, and this consideration should be part of any negotiated settlement.  Your reputation as a contractor is always at stake, and the experienced construction dispute attorneys at the Watkins Firm understand the nature of contractors and the construction business in general.

We also respect the importance of the relationships between a general contractor and their subs, as well as the relationship and work atmosphere that must prevail on any successful job site.  Our attorneys will not work to add fuel to the dispute, but provide a calm and steady influence that is the result of decades of successful cases here in the San Diego region.  Our goal is to open a productive negotiation that gets the core issues on the table so that a “work around” can be negotiated to resolve the dispute quickly and cost-effectively.  When stubborn parties or issues of genuine disagreement persist mediation is an effective alternative to arbitration or litigation.  The experienced lawyers at the Watkins Firm protect your interests and work to find common ground and facilitate a negotiated solution or settlement that reflects our client’s objectives.
