Defects

The biggest investment that most any person ever makes is the purchase of a home. A properly built home should outlast mortgage payments. When problems arise with the construction of your home, it can cause a heavy financial and emotional burden.

Your home, if it has been built in the past ten years, should not have leaking roofs or windows, severely cracked concrete or stucco, or puddles of water in your yard and against your house every time it rains. It should not have mechanical, heating and air conditioning, electrical or plumbing problems.

The Firm brings actions on behalf of owners against homebuilders, contractors, insurers and home warranty companies for breach of contract, breach of warranty, negligence, fraud, and violations of the New Mexico Unfair Practices Act. The most common Construction Defect cases involve improper design and construction of residential homes.

Construction defects include toxic mold, soil subsidence, improper laying of foundation, roof leaks, balcony and deck failure, wood rot, floor and ceiling failure, and many other defects. These defects can create unsafe living conditions and can lead to personal injuries associated with living in the home.

The Law Firm of Alexander D. Crecca, PC, works closely with a team of experts, including architects, engineers, and general contractors, to determine the extent of the construction defects. These experts can help determine the amount of damage to your home and the monetary amount it will take to correct, if possible, any construction defects.

Construction defect cases are not just limited to the defects themselves, rather they may also involve claims of improper insurance claims handling, wrongful denials of insurance coverage, failure to timely render necessary repairs, failure to remit payment to the insured, misrepresentations of coverage by insurance agents, and violations of the New Mexico Insurance Code.

We know that protecting your home and your loved ones is one of your most important concerns, if not the most important concern. The Law Firm of Alexander D. Crecca will zealously represent you and your loved ones by providing quality legal representation and advice to homeowners and owners of commercial buildings with construction defect concerns.
