About
Mission and General Services
In its day to day activities, STA represents its members in dealing with the public agencies, authorities and private developers. STA’s philosophy centers on dispute resolution without the need for litigation, and the association has served its members well in this regard. Initiating informational meetings between the owner, the GC, CM and the subcontractor have proved to be most successful.
On the rare occasion when this approach has failed to produce results, members are afforded the services of our legal counsel. The resulting "umbrella" legal action allows all affected subcontractors to share in a single representation. Legal fees are shared on a basis that is proportional to the claim and the strength of multiple representation is very evident in eventual resolution.
In addition, we have a number of unique services available to our members. The Business Practice Interchange which allows our members to check on the credibility and performance of general contractors and construction managers in the New York Metropolitan area. Additional information is available through our monthly newsletter and the much sought after StayAlert, which is a listing of commercial liens filed in the New York City region during the previous month.
