When contractors, subcontractors, and homeowners get into legal disputes, their cases generally fall under construction law. Conflicts may arise when one party in a construction contract believes the other party breached the contract’s terms or failed to perform appropriately. However, other construction-related disputes can involve insurance coverage, employment, and injury or damage claims.
Our Rutherfordton construction law lawyer at Farmer & Morris Law, PLLC, offers services to assist clients with these types of cases. If you would like a lawyer from our firm to review the terms of your contract or help your construction business in Rutherfordton resolve a legal dispute, you can reach out to us for a consultation.

Legal disputes surrounding a construction project can get complicated since they must comply with construction standards, drawings and specifications, and building codes. Whether you are a homeowner, sole proprietor, or construction business owner, working with a construction lawyer can help you protect your legal interests while handling a dispute.
At Farmer & Morris Law, PLLC, we represent homeowners, business owners, and contractors, helping them settle their cases. A construction lawyer from our firm can represent you while our team provides other services to manage your case, such as:
- Contract reviews: Our team can review the terms of your contractual agreement to point out any potential for liability or help you handle a legal dispute that arises from it. Within this area, we can handle cases involving liability claims, breach of contract claims, quantum merit claims, and unjust enrichment claims.
- Payment dispute assessment: Because construction projects often involve working with contractors and suppliers, payment disputes can occur. We can review any mechanic liens you may be facing and explain your rights within G.S. § 44A-7 and other statutes. We can also review any breach of contract issues or other payment disputes you may be facing.
- Personal injury or property damage claims work: In some cases, a construction business may enlist the help of a lawyer to handle small claims involving personal injury, property damage, or wrongful death. Our team can review your case to see if you may have liability and then help challenge the case with the evidence we collect.
While these are some key services our team provides, there may be other construction-related legal matters that you or your company may be facing. A lawyer from our team can serve you in Rutherfordton, whether that involves negotiating contractual terms or presenting your case in trial.
