6 Construction Claims Time & Money Top Tips to avoid a claim The aim for all construction projects is to complete on time and on budget. Sadly - it s an aim rarely achieved. Failure can result in claims that are both complex and expensive Our experienced specialist solicitors and consultants are perfectly placed to help you with your construction claims, including claims for loss and expense claims for time extension and contract variations employers claims for delay and disruption work defects liquidated damages claims for professional negligence For your claim to succeed, you need fast, realistic advice, based on all the legal and commercial considerations. Our services include advice and guidance on the merits of the case whether or not it s wise to proceed notice submission, applications and record keeping heads of claim, including the evaluation process the best course of action for the earliest and most satisfactory resolution preparing and formulating claims consideration of the relevant documents and back up the content of claims where mediation, adjudication or arbitration are needed We ll also carry out preparation of delay programmes for analytical and presentational purposes, schedules (time slice analysis), analysis of cause and effect negotiations regarding settlement drafting of settlement agreements cost-effective management of disputes and continuity of approach We can assist you in instructing the best experts to advise you
7 Adjudication Construction Adjudication Are you involved in a Construction dispute? There s every chance that the process of Adjudication will provide the best means of resolution. Many standard contracts, sub-contracts and Consultants Agreements provide for this arrangement and The Housing Grants, Construction and Regeneration Act 1996, along with its subsequent amendments, deal with the Adjudication process The great benefit of Adjudication, as opposed to Arbitration or Litigation, is that, being relatively fast and cost effective, it s ideal for many smaller disputes. There are also instances when Adjudication suits larger disputes too Our lawyers have been at the forefront of Adjudication since its earliest days in May We ve advised and guided many clients through the process. Furthermore, both the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors and the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators consistently appoint us as Adjudicators To be effective, Adjudication needs to be fast and responsive from start to finish from initial advice through preparation, to final submission this is our speciality. Our people enjoy massive Adjudication experience in the Construction Industry. This gives the flexibility and know-how you need to resolve your dispute quickly, efficiently and cost-effectively Our lawyers have been at the forefront of Adjudication since its earliest days in May 1998
8 Adjudication Lifecycle An Adjudicator reaches a decision within 28 days of referral of the matter or such longer period as is agreed by the parties after the dispute has been referred; The Adjudicator can extend the period of 28 days by up to 14 days, with the consent of the party by whom the dispute was referred Referring Party Responding Party Silver Shemmings Ash Expertise Pre-Action Is there a Construction Contract? Is it subject to the Housing Grants Construction and Regeneration Act 1996 (the Act )? Is the dispute ready to be referred to adjudication? What rules will apply to the adjudication? Identify and manage issues Consider payment notices Resolve the dispute without recourse to adjudication Consider Contract s adjudication terms Advice on: Operation of Contract; Whether you should Adjudicate What your chances of success may be Provide you with national coverage. Adjudication Procedure Serve Notice of Adjudication Appoint Adjudicator Prepare Referral Notice Assess Response Deal with Adjudicator s requests Consider Decision Receive Notice of Adjudication Assess whether the Adjudicator has jurisdiction Assess Referral Notice Prepare Response Deal with Adjudicator requests Consider Decision Advice on: Technical legal issues Procedural issues Pleading your case Reduce disruption to your business Support throughout the entire process Challenges/ Enforcement Dealing with challenges Enforcing the Decision Enforcement proceedings Resolution Challenging the Decision Basis of challenge Cost consequences Final resolution Advice on: Possibility of challenges Resisting enforcement Costs Commercial settlement
9 Dispute Resolution Few people enjoy legal disputes, they can be stressful, time consuming and expensive - even when you win So we use our experience and judgement to advise you as to what s legally practical and commercially sensible Our expertise enables us to give you first-rate, down to earth guidance in respect of commercial, construction and property disputes and which would be the best option to follow. Some disputes are best suited to adjudication, such as payment issues, whereas other types of disputes are more suited to being settled by way of a negotiated settlement such as through mediation, which is a very successful form of dispute resolution and one favoured by the courts. With our experience we can guide you through the options available, so you make the best choice based on the type of claim, the amount in dispute and the potential costs of not settling We have considerable experience in the following: ADR including conciliation Adjudication Mediation Arbitration Litigation including enforcement of Adjudicators decisions A number of our Lawyers and consultants are dual-qualified solicitors and barristers from a technical background (Chartered Surveyors, Quantity Surveyors, Civil & Structural Engineers). They have worked in the Construction Industry in the past and so truly appreciate the challenges faced by those involved in this sector
10 Litigation Our philosophy is that the primary objective must always be to avoid a dispute To this end, we can provide advice at the inception of a project including the use of the most appropriate form of standard contract, drafting amendments to contracts, partnering arrangements and the setting up bespoke agreements However, despite the best of planning, disputes can still occur and therefore a large element of our work involves assistance during and after the construction process, trouble shooting as well as advising on the dispute resolution process and we have considerable experience in dealing with all forms of Construction Litigation Claims, Arbitration, Adjudication and Mediation. We seek to provide our clients with not just practical legal advice, but also commercially sensible and viable solutions Construction Litigation We have experience in working with the Courts, both High Court and County Court as well as dealing with appeals in the Court of Appeal and the Supreme Court. Most of our work is done in the Technology and Construction Court (TCC) which is a specialist Court dealing with complex construction claims We have been involved in a number of leading cases including: Aspect Contract (Asbestos) Ltd v Higgins Construction plc Harding (t/a MJ Harding) v Paice & Another Beumer Group v Vinci Construction UK Fileturn Ltd v Royal Garden Hotel Ltd Glendalough Associated SA v Harris Calnan Construction Co Ltd We are highly experienced in construction disputes. Some of our areas of expertise include: Interpretation of agreements including construction & commercial agreements Valuation of works and variations Analysis of extensions of time claims Assessment of loss and /or expense claims Professional negligence claims Defects claims Environmental claims Freezing injunctions Enforcement of Adjudication We have represented our clients, including as Advocates, in the Technology and Construction Court in a vast range of claims including disputes on collateral warranties, defects, final accounts, variations, delay & disruption, loss & expense, extension of time and even making applications for injunctions preventing the call on bonds or seeking freezing orders to restrain opponents from dissipating any of their assets
11 Litigation (Commercial) Our experience also covers: claims for breach of contract, valuation claims, loss and expense and delay claims professional negligence including claims against engineers, architects, quantity surveyors, and project managers insolvency matters including statutory demands, and winding up petitions breach of warranty debt collection product liability claims Our experience includes claims relating to: agency disputes banking litigation commercial disputes construction disputes contract disputes company/corporate work And business issues including: shareholder disputes debt recovery injunctions insurance policy disputes insolvency including issue of statutory demands winding up and bankruptcy intellectual property I.T. disputes partnership issues professional negligence product liability claims property disputes In all cases, we will take the issues as you see them and place these within a legal and commercial framework in order to be able to agree the most fitting way forward with you Litigation Funding Litigation can be an expensive business. At Silver Shemmings Ash, we aim to control the cost to our clients in litigation. Our approach is to provide a value for money service and an effective way of managing our client s costs is to consider the risks associated with litigation as well as providing detailed cost estimates before and during an on-going court case. We can also advise our clients on obtaining before the event insurance, after the event insurance and third party insurer funding to cover the risk of having to pay an opponent s costs
12 Professional Negligence Professionals are not always as professional as you might wish them to be To err is human, but when a professional gives bad advice to a client, the consequences can be disastrous. Examples include: Your Architect makes a mistake in a drawing Your Engineer makes a miscalculation Your Contractor uses inappropriate materials in construction Your Quantity Surveyor makes inadequate provision in cost control Your previous Solicitor missed a crucial time limit set by the court The same Solicitor makes the wrong judgement about the type of claim you are entitled to bring Recent years have seen a rise in professional negligence claims. Our specialist lawyers are hugely experienced in the construction industry, their expertise lies in dealing with professional negligence claims against professionals such as: Complex and delicate cases how we help Making a claim for professional negligence can be complex, stressful and costly In the field of construction, there are many areas where a claim might be valid. Examples include: Failure to design the works in accordance with their appointment Failure to supervise or project manage the works in accordance with their appointment Failure to ensure the contractor built the works in accordance with contract Negligent certification of the works We ll help you to decide whether the professional has been legally negligent. If the answer is yes, then we ll help you bring a professional negligence claim and advise you on legal liability, causation and loss Surveyors Architects Engineers Project Managers Quantity Surveyor Duty of Care To be successful in a professional negligence case, you need to show the court or tribunal that 1. the defendant professional owed you a duty of care 2. the professional had breached that duty of care 3. as a result, you had suffered losses The types of duty of care vary from one profession to the next. They may also be owed to third-parties
