The firm’s client performed an urban light rail project as a subcontractor. The project suffered substantial design revisions, delays and impacts, with total claims in excess of $100 million. Construction concluded with numerous subcontract, pass-through and prime contract claims. After multiple years of project-level negotiation ending in stalemate, the firm was retained to prosecute $6.5 million in subcontract and pass-through claims (discrete changed work/extra costs, delay/extended general conditions, inefficiency/lost-productivity, etc.). The firm’s client recovered on its claims and preserved its client’s relationship with the project owner.
