Understanding Common Construction Defects & Minnesota Home Warranty Issues
Construction defects can manifest in many ways, sometimes immediately, and other times, years after a project is completed. We handle a wide range of defect issues, including:
- Faulty workmanship and defective materials
- Design deficiencies and building code violations
- Water intrusion (leaky roofs, windows, foundations)
- Electrical, plumbing, and HVAC system failures
- Major structural issues
Our Approach to Construction Defect & Home Warranty Claims
At Capstone Law, we take a thorough and strategic approach to every construction defect case, led by our principal attorney, Rob Shainess:
- Claim Evaluation: Each case starts with a thorough evaluation of the facts. Rob will work closely with you, and often with experts, to determine the merits of relevant claims and defenses and the overall likelihood of success.
- Expert Analysis: As an experienced construction defect attorney, Rob has longstanding relationships with forensic engineers who can evaluate the source and cause of the defect, which is critical whether you are making a claim or defending against a construction defect claim.
- Claim Resolution: Many construction defect claims can be resolved through a negotiated settlement, and we strive for this efficient outcome whenever possible.
