Construction Delay Suit

A subcontractor who had been accused of delaying a large school project retained Mr. Lipstein. The general contractor refused to pay what it owed and sued Mr. Lipstein's client for a substantial dollar amount. Mr. Lipstein persuaded the court that the delays had been caused by the general contractor and not the client. The client was awarded the balance of the contract price which the general contractor had refused to pay.
