Massachusetts Payment Bond Lawyer

Under Massachusetts law, payment and performance bonds are required on public projects, largely because property liens cannot be placed on public property. Private owners may also require both payment and performance bonds on major non-profit or commercial projects of significant size.

Performance bonds ensure compliance with the contractual provisions in the course of performance of the project. They can be used to protect owners in the event that the general contractor runs into financial difficulty and is unable to finish the project, or in cases where the work performed is sub-standard, making it necessary to replace the general contractor.

In contrast, a payment bond protects the owner when a general contractor is not paying sub-contractors and suppliers — the bond provides insurance to owners if the general contractor doesn't pay, the bonding company will pay.

A similar set of bonds may exist between a sub-contractor and a general contractor, so that the general contractor is protected in the event the sub-contractor does not pay the suppliers.

John Davagian can advise as to how to secure the necessary bonds for your project, and collect payment when it becomes necessary.
