Construction disputes frequently arise from changes in project scope, delays, differing site conditions, payment issues, and competing interpretations of contractual obligations. For construction attorneys and in-house counsel, effectively evaluating these claims requires an understanding of applicable contract provisions, notice and documentation requirements, entitlement to additional compensation or time, and the legal and evidentiary issues that can affect dispute resolution and litigation.
In this CLE webinar, Christian Johansen, Managing Partner at Bruun & Hjejle, will provide an update on significant legal issues involving construction claims and disputes. The program will examine the legal treatment of change orders, contract modifications, project delays, delay and disruption claims, differing site conditions, payment disputes, and contractual notice requirements. It will also address documentation, allocation of contractual risk, damages, and legal strategies for analyzing and resolving construction claims.
The program will focus on the legal considerations attorneys should evaluate when advising clients, assessing potential claims and defenses, negotiating disputed issues, and preparing construction disputes for litigation, arbitration, or other forms of resolution.

- Key legal considerations for documenting and substantiating change orders.
