Dispute Resolution

Our team excels in resolving construction disputes through mediation, arbitration, and litigation.

Wisconsin Right to Cure Act Procedures

Before a lawsuit can be filed, an owner must provide a contractor with an opportunity to repair defects in their work by following the procedures laid out in the Right to Cure Act.

Construction and Design Defects

We help clients resolve problems involving unexpected construction or design defects on projects.

Although contractors and design professionals usually give their best effort on a project, sometimes mistakes happen which result in some kind of defect in the work. When that happens, our attorneys can help advocate for you when dealing with the other parties on the project. We have experience handling construction and design defects on commercial and residential projects involving a variety of problems, including:

  • leaking/deteriorating roofs or siding
  • improper soil drainage
  • structural integrity issues
  • defective components in windows and doors
  • mold growth
  • building code violations
  • cracks in concrete/sidewalk/foundation
  • HVAC system malfunctions
  • settlement of soils
  • improper moisture levels
  • unanticipated flooding
  • rotting lumber or other building materials

Whether you’re an owner dealing with problems in your home or office, or a contractor or design professional accused of falling below the industry standard of care on a project, the lawyers at Turke & Steil will fight for you.
