Disputes and claims can arise due to a variety of reasons, such as disruption of progress, delays, changes in scope, unforeseeable conditions, Loss or Damage due to Employer’s Risks, design issues, or disagreements over contractual obligations. Below is a detailed overview of our services.
1. Claim Preparation

Construction claims arise from breaches of contract, delays, cost overruns, or inadequate performance. These claims generally involve disputes over payment, performance, extension of time, or variation in project scope. Parties to a construction contract typically resort to adjudication, arbitration, or litigation when these claims are contested. We assist contractors and Employers in preparing claims related to delays, disruptions, or changes in the scope of work. Some of the types of claims are as follows:

  • Delay Claims: Compensation for delays caused by either party.
  • Disruption Claims: Arise when work is hindered but not delayed.
  • Acceleration Claims: If the contractor is asked to speed up work, they may claim additional costs.
  • Defective Work Claims: When work doesn’t meet agreed standards/specifications.
2. Construction Claim Management:
