Construction

Resolve your construction dispute quickly and confidentially using
Alternative Dispute Resolution.

Construction is an ongoing major component of our communities and economy.  At any given time, untold numbers of commercial and residential construction projects are underway in the United States.  Disputes are bound to arise.

Construction disputes can be especially difficult to resolve because they often involve multiple parties, are factually complex, and frequently involve complicated contract arguments and interpretations.  An additional level of complexity stems from identifying the source of the defect, whether it results from the original construction or from additions or modifications made long after the original construction is complete.

“In 2006, the value of construction put in place totaled $1.1 trillion, or 9 percent of the U.S. gross domestic product. Spending on residential construction totaled $647 billion; nonresidential spending totaled $545 billion. More than 90 percent of construction companies have fewer than 20 employees.”  http://www.epa.gov/

Because of their level of complexity, construction disputes are often resolved with greater satisfaction using dispute resolution avenues that provide an alternative to the courts.  Alternative Dispute Resolution |ADR encompasses any process that is outside of the normal legal and judicial channels.  ADR most often refers to arbitration and mediation, but may also encompass early neutral evaluation and collaborative law.

Whether your disputes relates to a commercial or residential project, USADR offers meaningful, affordable alternatives to resolve disputes quickly and inexpensively.
