Recent Answers to Property Damage Law Questions
I live in Boise, Idaho. I had my basement flood in May, 2025, due to a clogged irrigation ditch that runs on the east side of my property. I claim the ditch association did not do their job to keep it unclogged; they claim they have no liability or responsitility. I want to recover my losses, which amount to over $ 40,000.00, plus all the work we have gone to to clean up the damage caused from the flooding. What will this cost me to get legal representation.

I had my home flooded from a clogged irrigation ditch. I claim the the ditch association was negligent in not keeping the ditch cleaned out and inspecting in regularly. The ditch rider went out of town and did not get anyone else to do his job.

Hello! Thank you for sharing, and I'm sorry to hear about the flood. This sounds like a fairly straightforward negligence claim, and one that I would be happy to represent you in. I charge an up-front retainer that I bill against as we move through the process, starting with a demand letter and moving toward litigation and/or settlement as needed. I'd be happy to set up a free consultation with you to discuss further, including estimated costs and what the process looks like. I hope to hear from you soon and look forward to talking with you more!

I am suing contractor I hired to fix furnace but he broke it and made threats demanding more money to come back on what should have been warranty work. I send pictures of damage but no demand letter out of fear.

The short answer is: no. HOWEVER, setting expectations up front, clearly identifying the issues and your evidence could facilitate a quicker settlement. The letter can also serve as a shot across the other party's bow to force the party to report the issue to their insurance company which MAY make resolving the damage claims a quicker affair.

Contracts Counsel was incredibly helpful and easy to use. I submitted a project for a lawyer's help within a day I had received over 6 proposals from qualified lawyers. I submitted a bid that works best for my business and we went forward with the project.

I never knew how difficult it was to obtain representation or a lawyer, and ContractsCounsel was EXACTLY the type of service I was hoping for when I was in a pinch. Working with their service was efficient, effective and made me feel in control. Thank you so much and should I ever need attorney services down the road, I'll certainly be a repeat customer.

I got 5 bids within 24h of posting my project. I choose the person who provided the most detailed and relevant intro letter, highlighting their experience relevant to my project. I am very satisfied with the outcome and quality of the two agreements that were produced, they actually far exceed my expectations.
