We also understand that the needs of business clients require at times work during both early and late hours. Experience tells us that a transaction knows not the sweep arm of the clock. Deadlines need to be met, even if that means working late, on weekends, or on holidays. We pride ourselves in being available 24 hours a day and 7 days a week to work diligently for our clients.

Just about every construction attorney and law firm with experience in construction in Northwest Colorado either knows of the Law Offices of Ralph A. Cantafio, P.C. or has been involved in a construction case with our firm.

Many construction attorneys have a specialized practice focusing on certain types of trades. Other attorneys represent only owners. Some represent only general contractors. We represent general contractors, materialmen, sub-contractors, architects, engineers, designers, sureties, bonding companies, banks, and yes, homeowners.

Some attorneys focus their legal work upon settling a case without the risk of trial. Other attorneys have never developed the requisite skill to negotiate effectively. Successful construction litigation requires an understanding of all the venues of resolution: lawyer to lawyer negotiation, mediation, arbitration and litigation. We feel resorting to lawsuits is appropriate only when all other means of alternative dispute resolution have first failed. We work just as hard on trying to settle claims as we do on litigating them.

We not only attempt to provide our best legal representation, but we also match our legal skills with the best consulting professionals. A good result when faced with a construction dispute involves a marriage between outstanding legal counsel and the right construction experts. Most parties to construction disputes, as well as their lawyers, have little experience matching the right expert for the needs and merits of that specific case. For instance, the best engineer to build a home may not be the best to act as an expert witness to testify in Court. Our goal is to increase the likelihood of the best possible result possible by putting together the best team of construction professionals as possible to address your specific problems. Experience shoes that this multi-disciplined approach yields exceptional results.
