Legal Question in Construction Law in Minnesota

Re: construction law-roofing contractor

Hard to tell from the limited facts given, but the general rule is that if you signed a written contract it is binding against you even if the other person didn't sign it. However, by taking the contract to court, the contractor is in essence adopting it...so, in defending, you would presumably be entitled to assert any defenses available to you relating to the contractor's failure to perform the contract (e.g., schedule of the work, etc.). Subtle distinction, perhaps, but worth pointing out.

Standard disclaimer: The above is given based on limited facts and information presented. Conclusions may differ significantly based on different facts. We do not have an attorney-client relationship.

That said, good luck to you.
