November 03, 2007 - Scholefield Associates to be a Featured Speaker at Workshop to Help Fire Victims
San Diego, Calif., November 02, San Diego based construction law firm, Scholefield Associates, P.C. has volunteered to be a featured speaker at a local workshop to help contractors and fire victims survive the rebuilding process. This is a chance for contractors as well as homeowners to ask legal questions before they have problems.
“We don’t want people to re-live the problems created after the 2003 Cedar fire”, says Pam Scholefield, the firm’s lead attorney. “We want people to learn from past mistakes.”
With the Cedar fire experience behind her, Scholefield hopes to educate contractors and homeowners on the legalities of the construction process. She will be available at SAN DIEGO REBUILDS! on Nov. 16th from 2:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. to discuss construction contracts, and to offer tips on what contractors and homeowners can do to assure a smooth and trouble free job. Some of these same tips will also help to expose the anticipated onslaught of construction scam artists who prey on disaster victims. Ms. Scholefield is proud to be selected as a speaker at this event and is excited to be able to give back to the community in positive ways.
SAN DIEGO REBUILDS!, is a one time event to be held at the California Center for the Arts in Escondido to connect fire victims with experts from local building departments, the Contractors State Licensing Board (CSLB), the BBB, qualified attorneys, insurance, tax and lending professionals, architects, construction contractors and a variety of material suppliers. Many of San Diego’s construction trade groups are also participating.
In addition, Congressmen Brian Bilbray, Darrell Issa and Duncan Hunter, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, State legislators Mark Wyland, Geopre Plescia, Lori Saldana, Joel Anderson and Dennis Hollingsworth, County Supervisors Pam Slater-Price and Bill Horn, Escondido Mayor Lori Holt Pfeiler, and the San Diego District Attorney Bonnie Dumanis have all pledged their support and participation in this event.
