Minnesota Construction Warranty Claim Lawyer

Construction Warranty Claim Attorney in Minnesota

In Minnesota, residential contractors are required to provide specific warranty coverage to homeowners. The statutory warranty includes required coverages and the process for making warranty claims. Contractors are legally obligated to provide warranty coverage for the entire project, including the work of their sub-contractors, which puts them at risk of being accountable for work they did not perform themselves.

Our background in law, business, and construction gives us a deep understanding of the warranty claim process. Our Minnesota construction warranty claim lawyer can help you decide whether the homeowner’s claim is viable to determine your obligation to repair.

What is our process?

Step One: Learn your objectives and goals

We want to understand how you define a successful outcome. For transactional issues, what are the important issues that need to be addressed in the document we are drafting? For disputes, what is the desired resolution or outcome?

Step Two: Understand your concerns and issues

For transactional, what have the parties agreed to and has an agreement been reached on all the key issues? For disputes, we need to know whether the contract addresses the issue, how it was addressed, who’s at fault, and what damages resulted

Step Three: Craft the strategy

For transactional, we draft a document that will achieve the desired outcome and reflect the client’s business. For disputes, we uphold the obligations stated in the contracts and/or determine reasonable remedies for issues not addressed in the contract.

Step Four: Implement the remedy

Following the strategy developed with and approved by the client, we move to achieve the intended result. Whether drafting a document or resolving a dispute, we’ll keep you informed on how things are going so you can focus on your business.

Common Issues in Construction Warranty Claims

Courts have expanded the warranty exposure of most contractors beyond the simple language of the law. Without a thorough understanding of the statutory warranty, contractors can find themselves at a significant disadvantage and exposed to expensive construction warranty claims. At MNCLS, we protect your rights as a contractor and make sure you are not held responsible for a claim that you are not liable for.
