Expert Witness & Litigation Support

When a construction dispute reaches litigation, the outcome turns on whether the numbers and the schedule tell a credible story. As a Certified Professional Estimator with $10B in project value across every major building type, I provide independent analysis and expert testimony on delay claims, cost overruns, scope and change-order disputes, and construction defect matters.

Engagements include document and cost review, schedule and delay analysis, expert reports, and deposition or trial testimony — for owners, developers, and the attorneys who represent them.

 

Troubled Project Assessment

Most failing projects don't announce it. The budget drifts, the schedule slips, and no one in the room is accountable solely to the owner. I'm brought in to diagnose what's actually happening — independently — and to tell you, plainly, what it will take to recover.

A focused assessment of scope, cost, schedule, and team performance, delivered as a clear set of findings and recommendations. Most of the work is done from your project documentation, with limited site presence.

 

Strategic Advisory

Some decisions are too consequential to make without an experienced, independent voice — feasibility on a complex acquisition, the real cost behind a contractor's number, whether a project is structured to succeed before capital is committed. I advise owners and investors on the questions that determine whether a project should move forward, and on what terms.

 

Most engagements begin with a single conversation. Tell me what you're facing and I'll tell you honestly whether I'm the right resource.
