Description

The Construction Contract serves as a formal agreement between the Contractor and the Owner for a construction project in Broward, outlining the scope of work, payment structure, and responsibilities of each party. It specifies that the Contractor will provide all labor and materials necessary to construct the Project as per the agreed plans and specifications. Key features include stipulations regarding permits, soil conditions, insurance, and the process for making changes to the scope of work through written 'Change Orders.' The contract also outlines the Contractor’s fee structure, whether it is a cost-plus or fixed fee arrangement, and details the penalties for late payments. Furthermore, it includes a warranty clause, limiting the Contractor's liability for defects in workmanship to one year, while passing on material warranties to the Owner. This document is particularly useful for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants as it clearly defines roles and responsibilities, mitigates risks, and provides a structured approach to construction projects, ensuring all parties are aware of their obligations and any contractual protections available.
