The best first step for any construction company owner, or land developer, is preventive - do everything you can upfront to minimize the potential for disputes. This is best achieved by being really, really clear on what the expectations are. All contracts, documents, and specifications should leave nothing open to interpretation. Having the exact deal, in words, is the best way to eliminate the chance of something going awry during the course of a project.

Knowledge of the law is also important at this stage. Having all your legal obligations and expectations covered in all contracts and paperwork is the best way to avoid trouble down the road.

A variance is an exception made to a local zoning law. There are different types of variances including:

Area variance - a request to change not how the property is to be used, but rather some physical aspect of it. A very common example is requesting a variance to put up a fence over a stretch of land.

Use variance - here, you are looking to actually change the use of the land. Very frequently, investors or developers will request use variances, for example, to build a multi-story structure on land zoned for single-story structures only.

There are several approaches you can take to settle the problem you are experiencing with a contractor.

The first thing is to go back to the contract and check to see all your expectations are in writing. If they aren't (or if something is ambiguous) you may have difficulty.

You can threaten to withhold payment. Hopefully your contract gives you some leverage, within, for example, the payment schedule. There may also be an arbitration clause within the contract, should a dispute arise.

As a last resort, depending on the size and dollar amount of the issue, you can pursue your claim through small claims court. Get the legal assistance you need: StrykerSlev.com
