Our construction law team understands the value of resolving your dispute quickly and with minimal disruption to your personal or business life. When you trust your case to our construction attorney at Farmer & Morris Law, PLLC, we help you understand your rights and responsibilities under the law.
G.S. Chapter 87 cites several laws that govern contractors. If your dispute involves someone who misrepresented themselves, their qualifications, or their construction business and its legitimacy, we can help you understand how G.S. § 87-1 defines regulations regarding general contractors. This understanding can help resolve your current dispute and avoid future misunderstandings.
We Put Contract Law to Work for You
In residential and commercial construction, contracts are how projects are defined. Our legal team can help you draft contracts that are binding and enforceable. We also ensure you understand the North Carolina Choice of Law and Forum in Business Contracts Act, which governs business and consumer contracts.
Additionally, we work hard to ensure your potential lawsuit is filed within the allotted time, per G.S. § 1-52. Accordingly, the statute of limitations for filing a lawsuit for breach of contract is three years. When we handle your case, we comply with the filing deadline, as needed. This preserves your ability to seek a remedy to your dispute in court if your case cannot be resolved with a mutually agreed-upon settlement.
