Experts
Litigation Support
Construction claims
are often the result
of cost overruns,
time delays or
construction
defects, all of
which are
qualitatively
visible.
Quantification of
damages associated
with construction
claims is a diligent
effort, as they are
often intertwined
between various
aspects of the
project, such as
cost estimating,
scheduling,
sequencing and
project management.
Our claims
consultants are
experts in the
quantification,
presentation and
evaluation of
construction damages
including:
-
Damage cause and
effect
-
Direct damages
(labor /
material /
equipment /
subcontract)
-
Extended project
costs (general
conditions /
general
requirements)
-
Expanded project
costs
-
Labor
productivity
loss /
disruption
-
Cost escalation
-
Home office
overhead costs
Often the most
contentious aspect
of a claim is the

parties’
quantification of
the claim. Having
