So far, litigation relating to the Chinese drywall allegations has focused on the foreign manufacturers of the drywall–not necessarily the most effective way for homeowners to benefit quickly in order to repair their homes or relocate, lawyer Scott Wolf says in “Drywall Drama” (August 2009).
“Homeowners aren’t doing anything wrong necessarily about going after the manufacturers,” Wolf says. “But from practical application standards, is the homeowner going to benefit quickly and completely by joining a class action against foreign manufacturers, or would the homeowner benefit by filing against the builder?”
