Strategic Resolution for Construction Industry Disputes

Our law firm provides tailored litigation defense and trial representation across the entire construction sector.

Our practice covers the full spectrum of construction law matters, including:

• Defending or pursuing construction defect claims regarding structural integrity or materials.
• Enforcing mechanic’s liens to secure payment for labor and supplies.
• Filing bond claims on public, federal, and commercial projects.
• Resolving regulatory compliance issues with local and state authorities.
• Managing disputes involving architects, engineers, and design professionals.

Enforcing Utah Mechanic’s Liens and Bond Claims

Recovering outstanding funds in Utah requires strict compliance with rigid statutory deadlines. For private projects, contractors and subcontractors generally need to file a Preliminary Notice through the Utah State Construction Registry within 20 days of starting work to maintain their lien rights. If a payment dispute arises, you must record a Notice of Construction Lien and file an action to enforce that lien within 180 days after the day on which you filed the notice.

Mediation and Arbitration Strategies

A trial before judges and juries is sometimes necessary, but alternative dispute resolution often delivers a faster, more controlled outcome. We regularly guide clients through mediation and binding arbitration to resolve construction contracts without prolonged court battles.
