Hi Lawyers: I hired a General Contractor to build an "in law" house on my North Carolina property. There was no officially set delivery schedule on the time and materials-ish contract. The project is near done, but has taken 2 years, through multiple excusable and inexcusable delays. We had a serious talk, and I demanded he needed to communicate ahead of additional; work, and delays. He agreed, claiming he had gone through a "personal rough time". 3 months afterwards, more delays, causing the electrical utility to postpone connection. The GC has stopped returning calls for the last 2-3 weeks. He failed to provide the utility (Duke) a response to required paperwork. Do I need to take any action before getting a lawyer to help with this ? What kind of law firm? Thanks
