Defending Property Owners Against Contractor Fraud & Defects
Construction defects and contractor fraud can leave homeowners, businesses, and property owners facing major financial losses. At A. Singer & Associates, our construction litigation attorneys fight for clients who have suffered due to poor workmanship, unsafe building practices, and contract violations.
Protect Yourself from Contractor Fraud & Defective Construction
Since the COVID-19 pandemic, the demand for construction has skyrocketed, leading to an increase in fraudulent contractors and poor-quality work. While many builders follow California’s strict construction laws, there are unscrupulous individuals who take advantage of property owners.
How to Protect Yourself When Hiring a Contractor
✅ Watch for “Too Available” Contractors – Skilled contractors are busy. Be wary of anyone with an open schedule.
✅ Verify Their License – Check the California Contractors State License Board (CSLB) to ensure their license is valid.
✅ Check Reviews & References – Ask for prior client recommendations to assess work quality and reliability.
✅ Compare Multiple Bids – Getting multiple quotes helps identify inconsistencies or red flags.
✅ Understand Permit Requirements – Beware of contractors who avoid permits, permits protect homeowners from liability.
