- How long do I have to bring a construction defect claim in California?
- California applies different deadlines to patent and latent defects, and certain claims require statutory notice before filing. Because those periods can be short, have your situation reviewed as soon as you notice a problem.
- Do I need an expert to prove a defect?
- Nearly always. Defect claims are won with inspection findings, engineering analysis, and repair cost testimony, and we coordinate those experts as part of building the case.
- Can a homeowners association bring a claim for common areas?
- Yes. Associations frequently pursue defect claims covering roofs, decks, plumbing, and other common elements, and those claims follow specific statutory procedures.
