Construction Damages
In construction disputes, the principal issues are causation and sufficient support for claimed impacts. Damages claimed must be linked to the record and be supported by the sound methodology.

Direct
- Labor
- Materials
- Equipment
- Subcontractors
- Profit
- Field Office Overhead
Indirect
- Lost Profit
- Escalation
- Loss of Efficiency
- Impaired Reputation
- Loss of Bonding Capacity
