Risk Assessment Must Not Be Forgotten
We proceed with research and analysis only when we have what we believe to be complete information. This does not mean that more information becomes neede to describe the complete timeline without gaps and complete an analysis. The methodologies I apply are chosen based on the facts and the level of available information, documentation, evidence, and clarity.
We expect cooperation and answers to questions we ask in a timely manor. Our client must have facts and explanations to make our analysis complete and factually complete.
Construction claims expertise requires a person/company who has a full range of experience because most construction claims involve many engineering and construction facets to fully understand all aspects of a claim subject from discovery back to initial or root cause. Gordon has a long varied project background.
