Judicial Advocacy

As a Subcontractor, the manner in which work is performed, down to collecting the dollars for the completed work, is summed up in the subcontract signed and its contractual language. At the same time, subcontracts are affected, and subject to revision, when the current case law in the California court system makes such changes necessary. The Pay-If-Paid & Other Victories” page offers information on court cases that have helped subcontractors and their suppliers. Conversely, the “Other Landmark Decisions” page helps to explain some of the cases representing obstacles facing subcontractors and their suppliers. The “ASAC Legal Forms” page makes available to subcontractors and suppliers information on the use of preliminary liens, mechanics liens, stop notices and lien releases. Finally, the 10 Subcontract Murder Clauses provides an analysis of the ten most critical clauses of a subcontract that determines the successful and profitable completion of a subcontractor’s work.

SPECIAL NOTE: The cases and information in this section are for information purposes only, if you have a specific legal problem, please consult an attorney in your area. If you need references, please contact your local American Subcontractors Association office.
