Successful claim resolution depends on understanding what happened, why it happened, and what it will take to move forward.
Insurance Claims services provide the technical expertise needed to evaluate damages, quantify losses, analyze schedules and costs, support dispute resolution, and navigate complex construction-related claims. Backed by decades of experience in construction, engineering, project controls, and forensic analysis, these services deliver objective, defensible solutions that help stakeholders make informed decisions and achieve efficient claim outcomes.
Qualified appraisers and umpires help resolve property damage valuation disputes across a wide range of construction-related claims. Technical expertise and an objective approach support the evaluation of loss scope and value to facilitate fair and defensible outcomes. Analyses are grounded in project documentation, site conditions, and industry standards, helping parties move toward resolution based on the facts of each case.
Comprehensive investigation of construction defect claims to determine cause, appropriate repair, and associated costs. Review of engineering analyses, project documents, drawings, and site information establishes the origin of defects and evaluates proposed repair scopes. Alignment of causation, repair recommendations, and cost estimates provides clear, defensible findings that support efficient claim resolution during pre-litigation proceedings or as part of an expert team.
Timely evaluation of builder’s risk claims helps minimize project disruption and financial exposure. Construction management experience combined with insurance expertise supports the analysis of schedules, contracts, and cost records to identify loss-related impacts and accurately quantify damages. Objective assessments assist owners, developers, contractors, and insurers in reaching informed decisions while reducing the risk of escalating delays and costs.
Accuracy drives every estimate. Detailed cost estimates for complex projects worldwide are developed using industry expertise, proprietary cost data, market research, and contractor validation. Preparation of Rough Order of Magnitude (ROM), segregated cost, Actual Cash Value (ACV), and depreciation-based estimates is supported by thorough reviews of scope, quantities, and pricing assumptions. Findings are presented in clear, comprehensive reports designed to support informed decision-making and claim resolution.
Comprehensive damage evaluations are performed for projects and structures of every type. Field verification, quantity takeoffs, precise measurements, moisture and damage mapping, and advanced technologies including drones and 3D reality capture support the development of reliable repair scopes. The resulting evaluations provide a transparent basis for understanding the extent of damage and determining the appropriate path toward recovery and resolution.
Immediate cost control following a loss event is critical to protecting project and claim outcomes. Collaboration with restoration contractors, insureds, and carriers supports the evaluation of emergency service scopes, pricing negotiations, and ongoing cost monitoring throughout the recovery process. Extensive restoration and construction experience, combined with detailed invoice review and project oversight, helps ensure costs remain reasonable, documented, and aligned with project requirements.
Expert testimony and litigation support are provided for construction damages, repair scope, and loss valuation disputes. Analysis of project records, technical documentation, site conditions, and cost data forms the foundation of objective opinions supported by detailed evidence. Findings are delivered through clear, well-documented reports and testimony that assist legal teams, insurers, and project stakeholders in resolving complex disputes.
Effective project monitoring is essential to controlling costs and maintaining progress during claim-related repairs and reconstruction. Site observation, detailed documentation, and ongoing tracking of labor, equipment, materials, and project activities provide stakeholders with accurate, real-time project visibility. Reporting supports claim-related cost management while maintaining alignment among contractors, adjusters, insurers, and owners throughout the restoration process.
Scheduling and delay analysis services support complex construction projects and insurance claims. Established forensic scheduling methodologies are applied to evaluate project records, schedules, and critical path impacts in determining periods of delay and interruption. Findings support the evaluation of period of restoration, business interruption, and delay-related claims, delivering clear and defensible conclusions for stakeholders, insurers, and legal teams.
Multidisciplinary construction expertise supports sureties throughout the lifecycle of distressed projects. Services range from identifying the underlying causes of project challenges to evaluating completion strategies, costs, and associated risks. Practical guidance informed by real-world construction experience helps support sound decision-making, mitigate exposure, and advance projects toward successful outcomes.
