A construction project has many working parts. For a successful completion of the project to occur, all components of the project must come together without issue. While this is an ideal situation, the reality is that it is not uncommon for issues or disputes to come up at any point or phase of the project.
A construction issue or dispute in Florida and elsewhere could arise because of disagreements during the negotiation of a contract, a breach of a contract, defects, licensing issues, insurance issues, payment disputes and the like. Because a construction dispute could impact the project by delaying it or preventing its completion, most seek to resolve the matter as effectively and efficiently as possible.
