| Following
are case histories and the names of individuals whose decisions
have had great impact on contractors and construction-related businesses.
It remains for the reader to make his own value judgment regarding
utilizing, conducting business with, or appearing before these individuals
and/or businesses.
The construction contractor has placed himself,
deservedly or not, in the same category as used car dealers, lawyers,
politicians, and the government. That is to say, we suffer from
bad press. For every one thousand good jobs completed it sometimes
appears that the only one mentioned in the media, is the disastrous
one.
There is another side contrary to public opinion.
And that is of the contractor, who, having signed a contract in
good faith and performing professionally and with due diligence,
is blindsided by negligence, incompetence, ego, hubris, cover-up
and downright fraud.
Occasionally, a contract is broken by the unscrupulous
and incompetent to cover their lack of expertise in dealing fairly
with construction activities. And sometimes, those charged with
interpreting the contract fairly, fail, because of their own personal
biases and inadequacies or outside political influence.
The cases presented here are to inform the public
of what has happened and could happen to those who act in good faith
and run afoul of the powers that be.
If anyone is aware of other cases of construction
injustice from a contractors perspective, similar to those below,
please contact us to have the
case presented.
Lastly, if the news media concentrated more on the
merits of the injustice rather than whose toes were being stepped
on and the lack of sex, violence, or abuse that characterizes much
of what is called "news" today, then this site would probably not
be here.
