Construction and Contractor Disputes

Construction projects depend on clear agreements and reliable payment. When those break down — whether between a general contractor and an owner, a subcontractor and a GC, or a developer and a trades contractor — the financial consequences can be significant and the path to resolution requires both litigation experience and a practical understanding of how construction projects actually work.

I represent general contractors, specialty subcontractors, trades contractors, and project owners in commercial construction disputes across Virginia state courts, the District of Columbia, and the Eastern and Western Districts of Virginia, including:

  1. Payment Claims and Subcontractor Non-Payment
  2. Quantum Meruit and Unjust Enrichment Claims
  3. Breach of Subcontract and Construction Contract Claims
  4. Mechanic’s Lien Filing and Enforcement
  5. Payment Bond Claims
  6. Change Order Disputes
  7. Construction Defect Claims
  8. Project Abandonment and Termination Disputes

Northern Virginia is one of the most active construction markets in the country. If your construction business is facing a payment dispute or a contract breakdown, contact me through the Contact page to discuss your situation.ents and help with a wide range of business disputes.
