Damage Evaluation

Professional Services

In addition to identifying liability, effectively prosecuting claims requires proof of damages. Whether your claim involves direct damages, such as additional labor and materials, or consequential damages, such as lost profits, Spire Consulting Group can provide the experience to establish the causal link between time/activity-related costs and the claims issues and events.

We examine structures, materials, systems, designs, installation sequencing and practices to uncover the cause of a problem and determine responsibility. Our experts investigate problems and advise our clients of the cause, solution and estimated costs associated with the corrective actions.

In establishing this causal link, Spire’s additional litigation services include:
