How Can We Help?*

Dedicated Construction Law Attorneys

The construction industry involves various legal issues that require careful attention and expertise. At BCN Law Firm, we provide legal support for the following common construction-related matters:

Contract Negotiation and Drafting: Construction contracts are the foundation of any project, outlining the rights and obligations of all parties involved. Our attorneys help negotiate, draft, and review contracts to ensure they are clear, enforceable, and protect your interests.
Construction Disputes: Disputes can arise during or after a construction project due to delays, defective work, cost overruns, or disagreements over payment. We represent clients in resolving these disputes through negotiation, mediation, or litigation, protecting your interests and minimizing disruptions to the project.
Mechanic’s Liens: If you have provided labor or materials to a construction project and have not been paid, you may have the right to file a mechanic’s lien against the property. Our attorneys assist contractors, subcontractors, and suppliers in filing and enforcing mechanic’s liens to recover unpaid funds.
Construction Defects: Construction defects can range from design flaws to faulty materials or workmanship. We represent property owners and developers in resolving claims related to construction defects, ensuring that responsible parties are held accountable for any issues affecting the quality and safety of the structure.
Regulatory Compliance: Construction projects must comply with various local, state, and federal regulations, including building codes, zoning laws, and environmental regulations. We help clients navigate these regulations and ensure their projects are in compliance with all applicable laws.
Payment and Performance Bonds: Payment and performance bonds provide financial protection to property owners and contractors in the event that a contractor fails to complete the project or pay subcontractors. We provide legal support for disputes related to these bonds.

I hired BCN law firm to handle my bankruptcy. Having always prided myself in handling my finances responsibly, when I had some health issues which I could not recover from financially I decided to plead bankruptcy. BCN law firm ( Carol ) made the whole process seamless. Carol was understanding, professional, and put my mind at ease during this difficult time. It’s people like Carol who have compassion for people that makes all the difference when hiring an attorney. Thank you Carol and BCN Law firm. If I could leave 10 stars I would have. Thanks again Carol and Wade Boyette!
