We Wrote the Book on Construction Defect Law
Everyday homeowners needed a guide to help them with construction defect litigation in California, so we published our first book in 1986, and it soon became the industry standard. We then went on to write two more books designed to help HOAs and board members navigate the complex topic of construction defect claims. You can benefit from our decades of construction defect law experience in each of our three books.
