Construction law litigation, including contractor lawsuits and construction defect claims, is one of the most complex forms of litigation.

Construction law litigation is very complex, primarily due to the multitude of documents – from contracts to plans and specifications to change orders – and the multiplicity of parties who are likely to be involved in any type of construction project or resulting construction claim. For example, some of the parties involved in a construction project, or who may attempt to make a claim, may include:

• Property Owners
• Property Managers
• Primary Contractor
• General Contractor
• Subcontractors
• Material Suppliers
• Insurers
• Sureties
• Lenders
• Architects
• Engineers
• Construction Managers
• Governmental Entities
• Public Interest Organizations

Water Damage, Black Mold Litigation, and “Sick Building Syndrome”

Recently, the construction industry has been flooded with construction defect claims and contractor lawsuits based on water damage to buildings that subsequently results in the development of black mold.

It is now a well-know fact that most toxic mold growth begins with a leak. If it is alleged that a building was not properly waterproofed, this can lead to development of toxic mold in either business or residential properties.

Resulting litigation can be levied against the property owner, the contractor, subcontractors, material suppliers, architects, engineers, or property managers; or in some instances, insurance companies have faced litigation based on accusations of bad faith in their refusal of timely payment of insurance claims by policyholders.

In cases involving toxic mold litigation, juries have been awarding substantial amounts to claimants across the country. Toxic mold litigation has been likened to the asbestos litigation so prevalent in the recent past. If you are facing black mold litigation, contact the Fairfield construction defect claims attorneys at Ury & Moskow, LLC, for immediate assistance and a free initial consultation.
