McGrath Law Firm:
Alabama Construction Defect Lawyers
McGrath Law Firm handles new home construction defects.
Because you shouldn’t have to pay for the same thing twice.
Construction Defects Are More Common Than You Think
For over 30 years, we have represented thousands of homeowners and families whose homes have been damaged by construction defects and shoddy workmanship. We hold builders responsible for shortcuts taken during construction and for the resulting damage and loss of property value. We protect families and homeowners from unscrupulous builders, real estate agents, home inspectors, and pest control companies every day. Even though many have called and asked, McGrath Law Firm has never defended a bad builder.
Buying a new home should give a homeowner peace of mind and assurance for years to come. Your home is supposed to be where you escape from the challenges of the day, not where problems are waiting for you. Buyers have every right to expect their new home investment to be defect-free and to appreciate in value over time.
Homes today are built faster and with less care than ever before. As a result, more new homes sold today suffer from hidden defects and building code violations.
We sincerely hope you purchased a defect-free house and hope you don’t have to pay for the same thing twice. But if your home has leaks, cracks, sagging, or mold, our firm is here to help. We have recovered tens of millions of dollars for repairs, diminished value, and the headache and heartache families have experienced. We’ve also forced builders to buy back dozens of the most severely defective homes, allowing homeowners to buy another house.
Who We Represent: Homeowners, Churches & Commercial Building Owners
McGrath Law Firm represents families, individual homeowners, churches, and businesses with construction defects. We have also represented hundreds of home and business owners with termite damage against pest control companies.
