What Is Construction Law?
Construction law is a broad legal practice area that governs the planning, execution, and resolution of issues related to construction projects. It involves the interpretation and enforcement of contracts, compliance with safety and zoning regulations, handling of payments and liens, and resolution of disputes through negotiation, mediation, arbitration, or litigation.
Michigan construction law protects the rights of both property owners and construction professionals while ensuring projects meet regulatory, contractual, and safety standards.
