A construction payment disagreement may involve disputed additional work, incomplete performance, backcharges, or a different understanding of the agreed scope. The amount invoiced may not identify the underlying point of disagreement.
Build a record of the work and changes
We compare the contract, plans or specifications relevant to the dispute, change orders, daily records, photographs, invoices, and communications about completion. The objective is to connect the payment claim to what was authorized and performed.

Questions about this dispute
What if there is no signed change order?
Bring the communications and records concerning the requested work. The facts and agreement need review before deciding the effect of missing documentation.
Does this include every construction specialty?
No. Contract and payment litigation should be distinguished from technical defect, lien, and bond matters. The scope of the engagement must be agreed.
