Sub Contractor Contract Writing Series - Subcontract Price and Payment
- August 11, 2022 2:30pm - 4:30pm

Explore how subcontracts allocate “credit risk”—the ability of owner and contractor to pay—including a subcontractor’s right to access financial information. When is payment due, and what conditions must be met before a contractor is obligated to pay? What security is available to assure subcontractors that funds will be there to pay subcontractor’s invoices, including liens, stop payment notices, and bond claims, and how may contract terms affect these? Terms addressing withholding and release of retention will also be discussed.
