Question: Can I pursue legal actions against a contractor for not completing the work?
Answer: In a case where an independent contractor did not complete the work as agreed, including safety issues and billing discrepancies, you may consider sending a formalized demand letter, requesting to (i) terminate the agreement; (ii) cover costs associated with repair; or (iii) renegotiation of the contract/scope of work. This will depend on the specifications made in the contract--if you'd like to book a call with an attorney to discuss your situation, contact Cape Law to see if services are offered in your jurisdiction.
