When a project goes wrong, you deserve accountability—not excuses.
About Contractor Fraud
What happens when you put a down payment on a contractor, but he or she keeps delaying the start date for work? What happens when you pay a contractor for the work, but the work was done to a substandard quality? These situations and more might afford you and your family relief under the law.
How We Can Help you
Aaron Harmaty’s practice involves assessing the underlying facts of your claim to determine whether your case can win at trial. We will look at whether the practices of the contractor meet the standards of the field, and based on that will advise you on how you should approach the issue.
Common Scenarios
Contractor disputes often involve abandoned projects, inflated bills, poor workmanship, or repeated delays. If you paid for work that wasn’t delivered—or was delivered badly—there may be options.
Your Rights
You have the right to honest representations, fair billing, and workmanship consistent with the contract. Depending on the facts, you may have claims for breach, damages, or other relief.
What to Expect
These cases typically start with reviewing documents and evidence. From there, we can determine whether negotiation, formal demands, or litigation is appropriate based on your goals.
