Chaix Law has exclusively practiced in construction defect litigation for over 30 years. Its all we do and all we have ever done. We are experts in the field. The depth and breadth of our legal experience with the construction defect claims process is unparalleled. We know how to navigate the complicated pre-claim provisions contained in the Association’s governing documents (CC&R’s) or individual purchase agreements. We are intimately familiar with building codes and construction standards and know how to litigate/negotiate against developers and their insurance carriers and have developed excellent relationships with industry leading experts to investigate your claim. We have the burden of proof and understand how to posture your claim for early success at settlement or trial.
We represent our clients on a contingency fee basis which means we only receive a fee if you receive a settlement or verdict. We advance all costs associated with your claim.

What Our
Clients are Saying
Chaix Law represented our high rise condominium association after we thought we had no claim due to the expiration of the statutes of limitations. He was very honest about our chances of prevailing and outlined our position very clearly and understandably so the board of directors could make an informed decision about moving forward. He recovered millions of dollars for our Association when other attorneys said it couldn’t be done. He helped our Association get back on its feet and preserved our property values. He even stayed on long after the case was settled to help during the reconstruction process. He really went the extra mile for us and we couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome and legal services we received.
