My company leased a new storefront in Brooklyn, and we hired a contractor to renovate it under a written agreement with a fixed price and completion date. The work is now six weeks late, several parts are still unfinished, and he's demanding another $28,000 for changes we never approved in writing. We've already paid most of the agreed amount, but he's refusing to return until we pay the extra money. Where can I find an attorney in New York who deals with contractor disputes?

The extra payment demand is only one part of the dispute, because the unfinished work may already be costing the business money. There may also be an arbitration clause or notice requirements in the contract that affect what you can do next. You can contact a commercial litigation attorney here: https://arkadybukhlawfirm.com/practice-areas/litigation/commercial-litigation/ . Bring the signed agreement, invoices, payment confirmations, and every written change request to the consultation. A clear timeline of the missed deadlines and unfinished work will help the attorney assess the case.
