Drafting construction defect complaints manually requires hours of organizing complex factual allegations, itemizing multiple defects across various building systems, and structuring multiple causes of action while ensuring compliance with state-specific notice requirements. Attorneys spend valuable billable time on repetitive formatting and structural elements rather than strategic legal analysis.

This workflow is applicable across multiple practice areas and use cases
Construction defect complaints frequently involve commercial properties and business disputes where contractors breach agreements with commercial property owners or developers.
Commercial litigation attorneys regularly handle construction-related disputes involving office buildings, retail spaces, and commercial developments where the same defect complaint structure, breach of contract claims, and warranty allegations apply.
Residential real estate attorneys represent homeowners in construction defect disputes with builders and contractors, requiring formal complaints for breach of warranty and negligent construction claims.
Residential real estate practitioners frequently encounter construction defect issues in new home purchases and need to draft complaints against builders, particularly in jurisdictions with specific homeowner protection statutes and warranty requirements.
Construction defects often cause personal injuries to property owners or occupants, requiring complaints that combine property damage claims with personal injury allegations stemming from defective construction.
Personal injury attorneys need to draft complaints when construction defects lead to injuries (e.g., structural failures, toxic materials, electrical defects), incorporating both negligence claims and strict liability theories already included in this workflow.
Commercial real estate attorneys use construction defect documentation during due diligence, transaction negotiations, and post-closing disputes to address warranty claims and construction-related liabilities.
Real estate transactional attorneys need to understand and draft construction defect claims when representing buyers discovering defects post-purchase or when negotiating indemnification provisions related to construction issues.
You'll need basic case information including court details, party names, property description, construction project details, and a list of specific defects. CaseMark guides you through each required field and helps organize your defect allegations into a comprehensive, itemized format that meets pleading standards.
CaseMark allows you to list multiple defendants including general contractors, subcontractors, developers, and architects. The system automatically structures allegations to address each party's role in the construction project and their relationship to the alleged defects.
Yes, CaseMark generates standard causes of action including breach of contract, breach of implied warranty, negligence, and strict liability. You can select which claims apply to your case, and the system structures each count with appropriate legal elements and factual support.
CaseMark includes a section for alleging compliance with pre-litigation notice requirements that many states mandate in construction defect cases. You can specify the notice provided to defendants and their opportunity to cure, ensuring your complaint addresses jurisdictional prerequisites.
CaseMark prompts you to provide specific, itemized defects such as 'leaking roof,' 'improperly installed windows,' or 'cracked foundation.' The more detailed your input, the stronger your complaint. The system organizes these into a clear, numbered list that meets pleading specificity requirements.
CaseMark's prayer for relief includes standard damages such as repair costs, loss of use, diminution in property value, and attorney's fees. The system generates appropriate relief language based on your causes of action and jurisdiction.
Most attorneys complete the input process and receive a draft complaint in 10-15 minutes. This replaces the 5-6 hours typically required for manual drafting, allowing you to focus on case strategy and client communication rather than document formatting.
