John Caravella, Esq.’s Post

Law has an impact on almost all aspects of life, from personal injury, family disputes, and real estate. Construction Law in particular has a far-reaching effect on many people’s lives without them even realizing. To begin with, Construction Law is made up of a broad subset of legal fields, including areas such as contract law, real estate law, administrative law, environmental law, regulatory, and insurance. Construction Law is a segment of law that works with specific industries such as construction, architecture, engineering, and more. Under the construction law umbrella, many construction issues consist of contract creation and negotiation, sureties and bonds, construction claims and defects, employment laws, and even business tune-ups. Within this article, we will specify the areas that are most common in the construction law segment, along with special areas you might not have thought of. #constructionlaw #lawschool #lawterms

These 3 cases provide valuable lessons about construction issues I hear about and deal with often - contract issues, price escalation, changes to the work, non-conforming work, non-payment, and delays. As I explain in my article, these issues can be critical to the success of a project before, during and after work is completed and knowing how to approach them is key. #constructionlaw #construction #contractor #subcontractor
