Construction Collections

The biggest thing we hear from our clients at Jarvis Law Firm, PC is that they have plenty of work and they're doing good work but they're just not getting paid. Jarvis Law Firm wants to be your partner on an ongoing basis to make sure you get paid for the good work you do. We use a variety of legal tools to make that happen. Alabama and United States Federal Law have special rules for construction related debts that are to your benefit and provide businesses or persons who supply labor or materials to a project special rights and priority over other creditors. Some of those legal tools have specific and narrow time requirements, and it is essential that documents are served or filed before those deadlines expire. Deadlines are the kind of details Jarvis Law Firm can take care of so you don't have to. You need to focus your time and attention on your primary business. We can handle the rest more affordably than you think. If you could benefit from the expertise of a Mobile, Alabama Construction Collections attorney, call or message us today at (251) 219-9706 or adam@jarvislawfirmpc.com.

Construction Defect

Lets face it, no construction project perfectly matches the plans and specifications that are appended to each contractor or subcontractor's project documents. That's reality. Whether those deviations are material, whether those deviations affect the intended use of the structure, whether those deviations affect the life and safety of the occupants are the legal issues determining whether the contractors substantially complied with the project documents. That's where Jarvis Law Firm, PC can help. Experienced construction litigation attorney, Adam Jarvis, has represented parties on each side of these disputes. Let us help you sort these issues to ensure your project has a positive outcome.

Construction Contracts, Contract Drafting, Contract Negotiation

Organizations like the American Institute of Architects and Associated General Contractors publish very good form contracts, but when you can negotiate or draft your own contract for a project, the terms of the agreement need to benefit you. Jarvis Law Firm offers low flat rates to its clients for contract review including plans and specifications. We can give provide legal opinions on the terms of a contract you are considering, suggest or negotiate changes, and we draft form contracts that are specifically tailored to advance your business. The scope of work, time for completion, price, progress payments, representations and warranties, waivers, indemnification, termination, notice of right to cancel, assignment, change orders, modification, choice of law, forum selection clause and many other terms need to be drafted in your favor. We also suggest adding a term requiring that if litigation is required for enforcement of the contract, the prevailing party will be awarded reasonable attorneys fees. You should not have to pay to enforce your rights in a contract when you fully performed your obligations. If you need a construction contract attorney, call the Jarvis Law Firm at (251) 219-9706 or send us a message at adam@jarvislawfirmpc.com. We are happy to be at your service.

Client Reviews
★★★★★
I serve as board chair of a Birmingham non-profit. Attorney Adam Jarvis was instrumental in our organization receiving an award of $1,375,655 in damages as a result of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. He very skillfully dealt with several legal issues that could have resulted in denial of our claim. Lee

I recently worked with Adam at Jarvis Law firm to create an LLC for my speech therapy business. He took the time to create the LLC for me and more importantly, to answer all of my questions. He was courteous and thorough in explaining the process throughout. I would highly recommend Jarvis Law firm for any of your law needs! Rebecca Bowen
