Dispute and Claim Management in Construction & Capital Projects
Assessing claims and strategizing regarding disputes to minimise your risk and maximise your contractual rights.
Sample situations and cases
- Are you aware of financial, operational, reputational and legal risks caused by delays and cost overruns?
- Do you need to defend against a claim and/or produce a counterclaim against an employer or contractor?
- Are you capable of calculating a loss of productivity and preparing a disruption claim (cost and time exercise)?
- Do you need advice on variation claims and costs due to changes in scope of work?Are you well prepared for protecting your organisation from possible damages due to time extension and prolongation claims?Do you have any suspicions about management or project team decisions in key activities?
- Do you need to conduct a forensic review on your contract administration?
