August, 25 1999 - Cerritos, CA - The Concord
Place Homeowners Association, represented by Thomas E. Miller, The Law
Offices of Thomas E. Miller, Newport Beach, recovered $2.3 million for
construction defects at the 155-unit residential condominium complex
located in Cerritos. The
case was finalized today at the Orange County Superior Court before
Judge Robert E. Thomas.
The homeowners at this condominium complex
sued their builder for defects that were intensified by last year's
El Niņo driven storms. The
lawsuit involved the Orange County based 396 Investment Company, and
its subcontractors, claiming damages for such defects as roof and deck
leaks, related flashing failures, electrical wiring and plumbing
failures, as well as ponding water in the common areas.
The association claimed the leaks and other defects were caused
by architectural deficiencies and code violations.
The builder and various subcontractors,
through their insurance carriers, contributed to the $2.3 million
settlement.
"We are extremely pleased to have reached
a fair settlement that will end the inconvenience the homeowners have
had to endure during the recent winter storms, including El Niņo,"
according to the President of the Concord Place Association, Lloyd
Munger.
Since 1981, Thomas
E. Miller has collected more than $300 million in construction defects
awards on behalf of California homeowners associations. To reach Thomas Miller, contact Rachel Miller at (949) 252-9150
