Construction Law

New York Construction Litigation Attorney

Ellen Rothstein, Attorney-at-Law

Parties enter into contracts expecting each other to perform in accordance with the contract terms.  Unfortunately, that does not always happen, even with the simplest of contracts.  Construction and renovation projects that you think should be short and inexpensive become timely and costly for a multitude of reasons, some foreseeable and some unforeseeable.  When construction projects go wrong, you need quality legal representation.

I have been providing legal services in Construction Law for over 20 years.  I will provide you with knowledgeable legal representation and personal service.

Over the years, I have developed extensive knowledge of the issues that typically arise in construction-related disputes and the facts and law that are material to their resolution.  Whether the dispute is over contract formation and interpretation, or over contract performance, clients come to me for personal, quality legal representation.  I have represented developers, owners, contractors, sub-contractors and material men  in the construction industry.  I have litigated numerous issues involving construction contract disputes, including:

  • Mechanic's Liens
  • Lien Foreclosures
  • Money Damages, including, but not limited to:
    • Acceleration Damages
    • Damages for Delay
    • Chargebacks for Delay
    • Non-performance
    • Inadequate Performance
    • Delivery of damaged goods
    • Untimely delivery of goods and materials
    • Non-payment for goods sold and delivered
    • Non-payment for services rendered
    • Non-conforming goods

In addition to the litigation process, I also have experience negotiating solutions to breach of contract and construction issues.  If any of these issues are facing you or your clients, then I may be able to help you.

With my law office centrally-located on 3rd Avenue near 42nd Street in midtown Manhattan, I am able to represent clients in all 5 boroughs of New York City - Manhattan, Queens, The Bronx, Brooklyn, Staten Island, and surrounding areas.

Contact me, Ellen Rothstein, Attorney-at Law for your initial telephone consultation and find out how I can help you.
