Construction defect litigation involves defects in construction where attorneys represent homeowners, commercial property owners, builders, construction companies and property developers when problems are discovered during or after the construction process. Construction defect litigation cases can be based on negligent structural engineering, improper soil analysis, and defective building materials.
Tieton is a town in Yakima County, Washington, United States. The population was 1,154 at the 2000 census. In recent years, Tieton has suffered economic depression, with the decline of its fruit warehouses.
