April 25: Researching Experts and Judges

Description:
Judges and Experts are two of the key players in any litigation. A Judge has wide discretion in all facets of a case, and it is important to know their likes and dislikes. Just as critical is to investigate the Experts (including your own) involved in a case. 

This seminar looks at the various types of online resources that are available to investigate Judges and Experts as well as tips and strategies on how that information might be utilized. This seminar will also address how to use online resources to learn more about those individuals who hear your cases.

Construction Defects from the Developer & GC Perspective

Description:

Construction Defect Litigation from the Developer/GC Perspective is a series of case studies in successful planning, analysis, and execution of expert work on behalf of developers and general contractors. 

Construction defect litigation can be expensive, confusing, and long-lasting, but it doesn’t have to be. Through this presentation, we will break down the process from the Developer/GC point of view, and provide approaches and alternatives in construction defect litigation.
This Webinar will demonstrate how developer and general contractor litigation should be investigated and executed from an expert consultant perspective, using the most current ASTM standards and science-based building performance analysis.

Investigations should involve conformance with the best standards of practice, a written investigation plan, random selection protocol for inspection and testing locations so the data is not biased, a comparison of performance to perfection, realistic repair estimates, and allocations to trade contractors. This program will include real-life case studies applying various approaches to construction defect litigation matters and examples of good work.
