CONSTRUCTION DEFECT CLAIMS

Fallon & McKinley, PLLC has handled construction damage cases (such as the Kingdome litigation) for years.  In the mid 1990’s the “CD” cases involving the construction of commercial, condominium and residential buildings became prolific in Washington State. Our attorneys have been heavily involved ever since.  We represent developers, general contractors, architects and engineers, subcontractors, and insurers.  Construction defect claims involve a multitude of legal disciplines and complex litigation.  The law in this area is constantly evolving with legislative changes and court decisions. Litigation costs and attorneys fees are significant parts of each claim. Fallon & McKinley, PLLC has litigated these cases in court, however, a large majority of the cases settle before trial.  Our philosophy has always been to build trust in the particular case, with the entire community of lawyers, experts, and insurance representatives that handle these cases.  This philosophy has been the corner stone in our efforts to resolve these cases economically and efficiently.
