Construction Defect
Getting properties back on track
Knott Laboratory assists construction defect attorneys, property owners and construction companies with engineering reports and plans to get the client’s property where it was intended to be. We have a team of structural engineers that regularly provides expert testimony and analysis of the technical aspects of the construction project. This can include reviewing the design plans and specifications, inspecting the construction site, and analyzing the construction methods and materials used.
Our involvement in construction defect cases can be crucial to identify the technical aspects of the case and provide expert testimony that can assist in resolving the dispute and determine liability.
To discuss your case, contact Justin Bayer in Colorado and Texas, and Zach Miller in Arizona.
