If you own a construction company, you need a good construction attorney. You never know when an issue is going to develop that could interfere with your business. Having access to an attorney will help you resolve those issues before they begin costing you money. Here are just three of the scenarios that be easier for you to resolve with the help of an experienced construction attorney:

Construction Delays Are Costing You Money

When it comes to construction projects, time is money. If your project is delayed, you're losing money, and so are your employees. If you're still paying your employees their standard wages during the delays, you're losing a substantial amount of money. Some delays can't be avoided or overcome. If you're dealing with delays that seem endless, you need to hire a construction attorney. They'll be able to get to the bottom of the delays and work to find a resolution that will allow work to resume.

You're in the Middle of a Contract Dispute

Contract disputes can be aggravating and costly, especially in the construction industry. When you're on a construction project, you'll enter into contracts with the clients, as well as with sub-contractors. Unfortunately, every contract you enter into has the potential to result in a dispute of some kind. When your contracts result in a dispute, you need an attorney to help you navigate the legal issues surrounding the dispute. Without proper legal assistance, you could find yourself in breach of contract, which could result in fines, or worse. Not only that but if someone has breached their contract with you, it could result in a loss of revenue for you. If you're facing contract disputes, you need to hire an attorney.

You're Being Sued for Negligence

When you're a contractor, you try to do your best for all your clients. Unfortunately, that's not always possible. Occasionally, a problem is going to arise that will result in unhappy clients. In fact, you may even be accused of negligent or shoddy workmanship. When that happens, you're going to need immediate legal representation. This is particularly important when it comes to accusations of negligence. When you're a contractor, being accused of negligence can ruin your business. Protect your reputation, and your future, by hiring a construction attorney to represent you in your negligence suit.

If you're a contractor, the time is going to come when you need legal representation. If you're facing any of the scenarios described above, contact a construction lawyer like Sauro & Bergstrom, PLLC near you.
