Maryland Custom Home Protection Act Cases

Choose us for 25 years of legal experience.

The Maryland Custom Home Protection Act governs certain disputes between builders and owners in Maryland when the owner is building a new house on the owner’s land. We help suppliers, subcontractors, contractors, engineers, owners and architects regarding Maryland Custom Home Protection Act cases in Montgomery County, Prince George’s County, Howard County, Frederick County and throughout Maryland.

As part of a comprehensive construction litigation practice spanning 25 years, the law firm of Daniel S. Willard, P.C. in Montgomery County offers competent litigation representation in Maryland Custom Home Protection Act cases to clients in the Maryland courts . Dan Willard, a Bethesda lawyer experienced with federal Miller Act claims, works with you and your experts to determine the strengths and weaknesses of your case and to aggressively present your matter to the judge or jury.

We bring — and defend — Maryland Custom Home Protection Act cases on behalf of owners, developers, contractors, subcontractors, construction managers, suppliers, manufacturers, design professionals, risk insurers and sureties.

We investigate each construction dispute, in concert with construction experts hired in consultation with our client, to determine whether errors, omissions, or contract or statutory breaches occurred. As appropriate, we can provide relevant legal advise to our client on how to proceed with remaining construction. In concert with the experts, we look to calculate ranges of damages caused to our client and/or other parties, gather expert testimony to seek to allocate fault among the parties, and plan a course of action for a recovery or defense. If litigation follows, we pursue court authorized “discovery” to obtain the other parties’ evidence and then work closely with fact and expert witnesses to seek a successful settlement, arbitration award, or trial verdict.

We represent clients in construction arbitration and in litigation. Also, we draft construction agreements, and we counsel clients on the management and avoidance of construction claims and disputes.

• Representing clients in construction cases
