Understanding and Demonstrating Delay Damages

HILLSBORO, Ore. - Sept. 17, 2018 - PRLog -- Edupliance announces a webinar titled, "Understanding and Demonstrating Delay Damages" In this webinar expert speaker Fritz Marth, will explain the various delay-related costs, or damages, incurred in a construction project. He will also cover the items and data necessary to prove damages and the necessary elements. The event goes LIVE on Wednesday, Sep 26, from 01:00 PM to 02:30 PM, EST / 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM PST.

Contractors have faced very strict "no damages for delay" clauses. But the tides are changing. If signed into law, it would allow recovery for delay damages, despite contract language. The recent case of company dispute regarding delay claims due to contracts terms has forced construction professionals to look for delay damages clauses in their contracts. Courts order on recoverable delay damages is a shock for many.

Most construction disputes involve a delay component, but analyzing and assigning responsibility for delay would be merely an academic exercise were it not for the costs associated with those delays. It will look at the types of damages, the proof of damages, and the recoverability of those damages. In addition to "actual damages," it will also cover the concepts surrounding liquidated damages and how liquidated damages limit both exposure and recovery.

The 90-minutes webinar will be conducted by Mr. Fritz Marth is a Senior managing Consultant with GREYHAWK, a nationally recognized construction management, and claims consulting firm.
