Extension of Time, Disruption and Loss & Expense Claims,


The universal uptake on adjudication and strict timescales involved has resulted in far greater numbers of dispute going to third party resolution. As well as preparing claims or submissions (see below) we also provide analysis and rebuttal of claims against our Client. This typically includes checks on:

  • Contract entitlement for each individual item
  • validity of the notices required under the contract or by case law
  • the financial build up of the sums sought
  • whether any elements, or even the entire submission, are Global which will not normally be upheld.

This analysis can be converted into a submission for an adjudication and we are able to represent you in this format if you so wish.

Our speciality is Delay and Disruption claims where our extensive experience of the construction process adds relevance of our presentations. We normally provide

  • case statements for the individual event which include the contractual entitlement together with durations, ESD's and programme activities affected
  • complete schedules of all causes and consequential effects
  • execution of programme analysis
  • commentary on the analysis and links to the financial effects
  • if required the calculation of the financial effects, and
  • all necessary summaries to enable a formal submission to be made

Again we can represent you at adjudication.

Where a matter has to go to Arbitration or the Courts, we are able to prepare the same data for solicitors or barristers to complete the formal pleadings. Similarly we can provide analysis of factual data of the other party's responses during the process for the legal team.
