Real estate code violations can be costly and time-consuming. Don’t try to deal with a town, city, municipality, or other government entity on your own. Let an experienced real estate lawyer determine the best method of resolving the dispute. Call Quattrochi, Torres, and Taormina at 407.452.4918. In some cases, your property may be eligible to be “grandfathered” into older codes. In other cases, there might be a less expensive fix available to address the alleged code violation safely. An experienced Seminole County code violation attorney can help you explore all options to find the best solution to building code violations.
Building code violations can also make a property owner more susceptible to personal injury claims. Premises liability laws require property owners to take reasonable steps to correct dangerous conditions on their land. Evidence of a code violation could be persuasive evidence that the owner was negligent in caring for his or her property. An attorney can help you determine how best to address code violations in order to prove that you have taken reasonable steps toward making your premises safe. A small investment of time and money in your property can save the inconvenience of a personal injury lawsuit in the future.
