Lawsuits can be costly and time-consuming. This is why R&H attorneys prioritize alternative strategies before turning to litigation. In many cases, successful negotiation or other legal maneuvers can bring about an equally favorable outcome.
In this case, a client hired our litigation team after experiencing issues with a recently poured sidewalk. She’d hired a contractor to complete the project, but soon after, the sidewalk began to crack and chip. She tried to resolve the problem directly with the contractor but made little progress.
Our attorneys took swift action, initiating negotiations with the contractor. Through diligent effort and practiced strategy, we secured a settlement that met our client's needs.
The contractor agreed to replace the damaged sidewalk at no additional cost to our client. This gave her a satisfactory outcome without the need for expensive legal proceedings.
