Construction Disputes
Construction disputes arise between property managers/homeowners and contractors/subcontractors when there is uncertainty in the contract, overpayments, and/or markable delay in the construction process.
If you’ve supplied material, labor, or other services to a property and you have not been paid, you may be eligible to register a construction lien against the property. On the other hand, a construction lien should be registered within 45 days of the last date of supply of the project.

It is quite common for construction projects to be delayed. The reasons that can lead to this delay may be the unavailability of materials, labor disputes, climate change that makes the work impossible, or even unavailability of municipal inspections delay obtaining licenses.
Because these types of delays are entirely predictable, it is ideal that the contract signed by the parties provides for what measures can be taken in such cases. However, some types of delays may be inexcusable and may result in a breach of the contract by one of the parties.
In cases of need to terminate a contract, the first step is to verify that the termination is consistent as the contract signed by all parties is to send a written notification to the contractor’s address, preferably with some physical record, such for example via mail.
