Each week, Construction Claims Advisor (www.constructionclaims.com) provides recent court decisions on why contractors are winning or losing there claims in court. Each case summary (over 3 per week) contains the complete pdf copy of the court's opinion you can immediately download. You'll read about:

Multimillion-dollar cases, like the $8.34 million appeal over a denied delay claim in the construction of the U.S. Embassy in Venezuela. It was “a classic case of an end-of-job claim,” we wrote, “involving critical path method scheduling, a litany of anecdotal incidents, alleged defective or impossible specifications, and lost labor productivity.”

Legal slip-ups, like M.A. Mortenson v. Acting Secy. of the Army, in which Mortenson’s own testimony helped lead to the loss. We suggested simple steps Mortenson could have taken that might have led to a win.

Developing case law, like the recent J.A. Jones v. Lehrer-McGovern-Bovis case, where a state supreme court allowed exceptions to the no-damage-for-delay clause and let a cardinal-change trial go forth for access delays and disruptions, even though the building itself did not change much.

Onerous Owners, like how a California School District tried to force a contractor to perform a $786,000 line item it obviously left out of its bid.  The judge held for the contractor.  And... a Colorado court awarded treble damages to homeowners in a townhome project for construction defects the developer refused to correct.   In the embassy case, the Board rejected as not credible a schedule analysis prepared by the government's well-known expert because it ignored known government delays.

Read these cases, and many more, including several recent cases affecting attorneys' fees, discovery and legal procedures that can have a significant impact on your credibility -- all back issues are available free!
