Series of Contracts
Every construction project – big and small – begins with a contract. Or, in most cases, a series of contracts.
How those contracts are designed and drafted have lasting impact that extends well beyond the completion of the project. Every construction project is different, Construction contracts must be drafted to fit the project. Boilerplate agreements will not suffice.
The Hahn Legal Group APC has crafted construction contracts for projects of all sizes. We use our in-depth knowledge of the construction industry to work with clients to produce contracts for every contingency. Present and future.
Construction Contracts
Like all contracts, construction agreements specify the parties involved in the project and spell out their roles and responsibilities. Compensation – amounts and the timing of payments – are specified.
Beyond that, construction contracts are in essence blueprints for the project. They specify materials and equipment to be used. The design of the building. The dimensions of every room, the finishing touches. The time allocated to each stage of the construction. The duties and obligations of the parties after the building is completed.
None of this can be produced in a vacuum. It requires a deep understanding of what it takes to successfully complete a project. That understanding is not worth much without the ability to recognize the other party’s needs and negotiate an agreement. Then, that agreement must be clearly spelled out in unambiguous language.
Contingencies must be addressed. Gray areas extinguished. Potential pitfalls identified and allowances made should they occur.
Construction Defects
The time, energy, and resources expended on negotiating, drafting, and executing a solid, project specific contract pay enormous dividends. Potential disputes that disrupt construction are avoided. Conflict is mitigated. Future problems such as construction defects are addressed and the potential for litigation is lessened.
