What are the time limits to file a civil claim for breach of contract in Trinidad and Tobago?

Question

I signed a contract with a local builder last year, and they failed to complete the work as agreed. I want to sue for damages, but I'm not sure how long I have to start a civil claim in Trinidad and Tobago or what steps are required. Should I try mediation first or go straight to court?

In Trinidad and Tobago, the statute of limitation for breach of contract matters is generally four years. Please refer to the Limitation of Certain Actions Act.

Yes, you should try to mediate the matter first before proceeding to litigation. Often mediation or a strongly worded legal letter will light a fire under them to get them moving.
