Can I get out of my solar contract or lease?

Yes, in many cases you can exit a solar contract or lease. Common grounds include misrepresentation by the solar company, failure to deliver promised savings, installation defects, or if the solar company has gone bankrupt. Contact us for a free evaluation of your specific situation.

What should I do if my solar company went bankrupt?

If your solar company has gone bankrupt (like SunPower, Sunnova, or others), you may still have legal options. You could be entitled to contract termination, warranty claims through bankruptcy proceedings, or recovery of deposits. Over 100 solar companies have filed bankruptcy since 2023, affecting 820,000+ homeowners. Contact My Solar Lawyer immediately for a free case review.

How long does a solar dispute case take?

Solar dispute cases typically take 3-12 months to resolve, depending on complexity. Simple contract disputes may settle in 3-6 months, while cases involving litigation or bankruptcy claims can take 6-12 months or longer. We work efficiently to resolve your case as quickly as possible while maximizing your recovery.

Do I have to pay upfront for solar legal services?

No upfront payment is required for most cases. My Solar Lawyer works on a contingency fee basis for most solar disputes, meaning you pay nothing unless we win your case. For certain case types, we offer flexible payment arrangements including flat fees and payment plans.

What is a solar lawyer and when do I need one?

A solar lawyer is an attorney who specializes in legal issues related to solar panel installations, solar contracts, and renewable energy disputes. You need a solar lawyer when facing issues like unfair solar contracts, installation defects causing roof damage, utility company disputes over net metering, unpaid solar incentives, or if your solar company has gone bankrupt. Solar lawyers help homeowners recover damages and exit problematic agreements.

What are common solar installation defects?

Common solar installation defects include roof leaks and water damage from improper mounting, faulty electrical wiring creating fire hazards, underperforming systems that don't generate promised energy, code violations, structural damage to roofs, and abandoned or incomplete installations. If you've experienced any of these issues, a solar attorney can help you pursue claims against the installer or their insurance company.

How do I know if I have a valid solar contract dispute?

You may have a valid solar contract dispute if you experienced misleading sales representations, hidden fees or escalator clauses you weren't told about, promised savings that never materialized, unauthorized contract modifications, or if the solar company failed to honor performance guarantees. A free consultation with a solar lawyer can help determine if you have grounds for legal action.
