Resolving Construction Payment Disputes

At McNaughton & Associates, PLLC, we help construction general contractors, subcontractors, and other construction professionals resolve payment disputes. If you work in the construction industry and you haven't been paid the money you are owed, we can:

  • Write and review correspondence: A well-drafted letter can often help avoid disputes before they arise. The letter can also help create a paper trail that can put you in a better position in the event the dispute is unavoidable. We can assist you in drafting letters that are compelling, authoritative and effective.
  • File a mechanic's lien: Filing a mechanic's lien helps secure payment for working on a project if the payor does not fulfill the obligations of the contract.
  • File a payment bond: Payment bonds are often used for government contracts when parties are unable to own a stake in the property. They essentially work as insurance policy in which a surety company puts up a bond for a fixed amount.
  • Arbitration: Many construction contracts contain arbitration clauses. We have helped many construction professionals resolve disputes through this method.
  • Litigation: While we strive to save our clients the expense of litigation, we are always prepared to go to trial.

Our attorneys are industry educators who are well-versed in the intricacies of this complex area of law. We will work hard to help you reach a favorable outcome to your payment dispute.
