We understand the unique and complex variety of issues that arise in any construction contract dispute or defect action.

A construction litigation lawyer from ADLI will work with you to facilitate an amicable and reasonable outcome.
Our experience has given us a solid foundation of understanding in the following practice areas:
Construction Defect Claims
A construction litigation lawyer from ADLI can help you create aggressive strategies in order to defend a construction defect claim. Our construction attorneys will guide you through the process of the Right to Repair Act of SB 800, if applicable. Our experienced lawyers will assist you in investigating defect claims and the cost of repair and defend and counsel you through litigation, having in mind the goal of minimizing attorney’s fees and costs and obtaining a fair resolution. When faced with a construction defect claim, turn to ADLI for zealous representation.
Enforcement of Mechanic’s Liens and Stop Notices
Mechanic’s Liens and Stop Notices help contractors secure payment on projects. Mechanic’s Liens apply to private construction, while Stop Notices are used in public works or projects with construction lenders. To successfully enforce these claims, contractors must follow strict timelines and procedures. Our experienced attorneys guide contractors through the entire process, from pre-filing to enforcement and foreclosure, ensuring your rights are protected.
Subcontractor Actions
Subcontractors play an integral role in construction projects. Whether you are a subcontractor who needs to get paid or you are the general contractor or homeowner who has a claim against the subcontractor, the sooner you have proper legal guidance from a firm that has experience in these matters, the better off you may be. An experienced construction litigation lawyer will help you assess your situation, evaluate your options, and explore strategies for quick and cost-efficient resolution.
Schedule & Delay Claims
Project owners, as well as general contractors and subcontractors, all have an interest in completing a construction project in a timely manner without needless and costly delays. Project timeline disruption can mean the difference between a profitable project and one that loses money. All too often construction scheduling delays lead to disputes, withholding of project funds, and, eventually, litigation.
We advise our clients at the beginning of the project and all throughout to avoid litigation. Even when litigation is inevitable, our construction lawyers are goal-oriented and work efficiently and effectively without clients to obtain the best results.
Extra Work & Change Order
Everyone in construction knows that projects may change, and unforeseen circumstances may arise, requiring extra work and extra time to complete the work. Change order disputes are common. Whether such a dispute will lead to a lawsuit depends on whether the parties involved have proper legal advice during and after a project. Whether you are seeking to enforce a contract or renegotiate a contract to address extra work and change orders, ADLI is proud to have a team of litigation lawyers with years of experience in these matters, who are able to advise you during the project to avoid litigation and at the conclusion of the project to resolve any remaining issues.
Complex Construction Litigation
Construction litigation typically involves a range of complex issues, including mechanic’s liens, stop notices, contract disputes, construction defects, and claims on license and surety bonds. These cases often require managing numerous parties, such as contractors, subcontractors, bond insurers, vendors, and suppliers. ADLI has the expertise to navigate these multifaceted disputes, ensuring that all parties are effectively represented. Our goal is to deliver decisive, timely, and cost-efficient resolutions, helping our clients minimize attorney fees while achieving the best possible outcomes.
