Our Firm
Benson & Associates PC is one of the leading construction defect litigation law firms in Colorado, representing homeowners and homeowner associations with construction defect claims against builders, subcontractors, and their insurance companies.
In the past six years alone, we have recovered more than $150 million in verdicts and settlements for our clients. In addition to recovering money for our clients, we have negotiated several creative alternative settlements, resulting in a win-win situation for all parties involved. In several cases, we have negotiated for builders to repair problems and extend the homeowners’ warranty, and pay for our clients’ fees and costs. In some cases, we have negotiated for the builder to repurchase homes from our clients. In one case, we even negotiated a “home-swap” in which our client was able to trade their defective home for a new home that was pre-inspected by our professional engineers.
Our firm has a unique approach to construction defect cases. We believe that it is possible to resolve many construction defect disputes without ever filing a lawsuit. We have developed and implemented several alternative approaches to our clients’ construction defect claims that can resolve their claims without ever stepping foot in a courthouse.
Each case presents its own individual facts, problems, attorneys, insurance representatives, and builders, so we tailor our approach in each case to match the particular dynamics of the people involved and the particular issues our clients face. Above all, we utilize the strategy that best fits our client’s needs and wants. We have found that our unique approach to construction defect cases usually provides a faster resolution of claims and better results for our clients.
When a lawsuit is necessary to meet our client’s objectives, we aggressively litigate cases, taking appropriate cases all the way to trial. We always keep in mind that the bottom line that matters to our clients is the end result after attorneys’ fees and litigation costs are paid, and how fast we can deliver this result. In every case, we strive for as early a resolution as possible and seek to recover fees and costs from the builder or other responsible party.
In addition to serving our clients, we strive to provide an enjoyable, close-knit workplace for our employees and attorneys. We are proud of our ability to attract and retain quality people. Most of the attorneys, paralegals and staff at Benson & Associates have been with the firm since its inception.
As leaders in the field of construction defect litigation, our attorneys are regularly asked to speak to groups of homeowners, association managers, other attorneys, and construction professionals. Additionally, our attorneys regularly publish topical articles in legal journals and industry trade publications.
