Schrieffer LLP represents construction professionals including owners, developers, general contractors, architects, engineers, subcontractors, materials suppliers and insurers in claims involving residential and commercial construction defects, including claims of defects in workmanship, design or materials with respect to single buildings, subdivisions, condominiums or apartment complexes.

We have had dealings in the following construction defect areas:

• Mold

• Designer Liability: which includes building code violations, inadequate plans, and faulty engineering, drawings and specifications.

While you may have done your due diligence in ensuring the materials used on your property are up to code, and do routine checks for any structural damage or instability, the materials aren’t all created equal and some may fail early.

While this may not be your fault, you will be the first person to get hit with a lawsuit. Luckily for you, we’ll be able to help prove your case by showing evidence of your continuous work to keep the property in the best working shape as is possible.
