What is a construction dispute? Construction disputes are disagreements between the parties involved in a contract. They most commonly arise in an owner and a contractor relationship, but can also emerge from suppliers, subcontractors, real estate developers, and architects.

A contract dispute is a disagreement between parties over the terms or performance of a legally binding contract, such as a master service agreement (MSA). It arises when at least one party believes another has failed to fulfill their contractual obligations, leading to a conflict that may require legal resolution.

The prime contractor is accountable to the project owner for the project's completion, which obviously includes the work done by subcontractors. Ultimately, subcontractors are responsible for their own mistakes, holding what's called direct liability.

Once you have obtained the names of several contractors, check with the Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry, which is the State agency with the authority to license and regulate a substantial portion of the construction industry in Minnesota.

A contractor who provides services in more than one special skill area must be licensed. Specialty contractors who provide only one special skill are not required to have a state license (except residential roofers).

It is best to give notice in writing to the contractor that unless he comes back and finishes the work, you will terminate him for cause. After this, you can hire another contractor to complete the project (and fix the shoddy work) and you can recover these additional costs for the contractor who walked off the job.

When disputes arise on a construction project, the initial and most favorable resolution method is negotiating. When a resolution cannot be reached through negotiations, a dispute may be resolved either through litigation or in some other forum—known as alternate dispute resolution.
