The "I'm going to get an expert and go to court and sue" tactic will most likely not work and cause you wasted time, money and grief even with "free" legal advice. You'd be better off trying to strike a deal with whoever did the work as reputable builders typically carry warranties on their workmanship. Only high end contractors would be susceptible to litigation. Most medium to small contract outfits will simply fold up shop, declare bankruptcy and leave you hanging. That's why most of them setup their businesses as Limited Liability Corporations (LLCs) - any suit you bring against them stops at the corporation not the builder personally.
I'm not trying to be a contrarian or rude, just speaking from experience with a past contractor job that went bad. When I pulled out the "I'm gonna sue you" line, the contractor laughed at me and said "go right ahead".
