Construction Disputes We Handle
Construction Defects
When poor workmanship, code violations, or hidden defects damage your property, you need decisive legal action. We represent homeowners, property owners, and businesses in construction defect claims involving structural failures, water intrusion, foundation issues, and other serious building problems. Our team guides you through Arizona’s notice requirements and works to secure repairs, compensation, or both.
Mechanic’s Lien Disputes
A mechanic’s lien can cloud your title, stall a sale, or disrupt a project. Whether you’re a property owner seeking removal of an improper lien or a contractor protecting your right to payment, we provide strategic guidance under Arizona lien law. We act quickly to challenge invalid liens, enforce valid ones, and protect your financial interests.
Fortify's Approach-Practical, Strategic, and Efficient
Our attorneys evaluate the best route forward: push the contractor to fix the work, help you bring in someone new and seek damages, or use Arizona's construction defect laws and complaint processes. We often start by engaging insurance, bonds, or the Registrar of Contractors to resolve things without court. If needed, we litigate-securing liens, court orders, or damages as warranted.
Case Examples
