Construction Claims & Dispute Resolution Support

Construction disputes are not resolved by broad statements of fairness. They are resolved through contract mechanisms, notices, records, delay evidence, entitlement logic, and commercially disciplined strategy.

Aegis supports contractors, subcontractors, and employers in construction claims and dispute-related matters where time, cost, variations, delay, disruption, liquidated damages, back-charges, payment, or final account issues have become contested.

What We Support:

Extension of Time claim preparation and review
Delay and disruption narrative development
Liquidated damages defence and exposure review
Variation and change-order disputes
Payment, invoice, retention, and final account issues
Back-charge review and rebuttal
Employer-side review of contractor claims
Contractor-side entitlement and claim preparation
Adjudication and arbitration-facing claim support
Settlement strategy and commercial resolution support

Our Approach:

We begin with the contract.

We identify the clause mechanism, the event, the notice position, the project records, the programme impact, the commercial consequence, and the available relief.

We then convert scattered correspondence, progress records, programmes, invoices, site documents, meeting minutes, and technical facts into a structured position that can be used for negotiation, adjudication, arbitration, or project-level resolution.

Why It Matters:

A dispute position is only as strong as its proof.

Aegis helps clients move away from unsupported assertions and towards record-backed, cause-and-effect narratives that can be tested by an Employer, Engineer, DAB, DAAB, adjudicator, arbitrator, or tribunal.

Typical Outcomes We Support:

Preserving time entitlement
Defending liquidated damages exposure
Rebutting unsupported deductions and back-charges
Strengthening variation and payment claims
Preparing structured submissions for dispute resolution
Supporting settlement and commercial close-out strategy

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What construction disputes does Aegis support?

Aegis supports disputes involving Extension of Time claims, delay and disruption, liquidated damages, variations, payment disputes, back-charges, final accounts, contractual notices, termination issues, and employer / contractor claim responses.

2. Does Aegis act only for contractors?

No. Aegis supports contractors, subcontractors, employers, and specialist engineering companies. We prepare claims, review claims, defend unsupported claims, and support project-level dispute resolution from either side of the contract.

3. Can Aegis help before a dispute reaches arbitration?

Yes. Aegis often assists before formal proceedings begin. We support contractual correspondence, claim positioning, notice strategy, entitlement review, delay-event analysis, negotiation support, and settlement strategy.

4. Does Aegis prepare Extension of Time claims?

Yes. Aegis assists employers in reviewing contractor EOT claims, testing entitlement, assessing causation, checking notice compliance, reviewing programme logic, and identifying unsupported or overstated delay positions.

6. What is the difference between claim preparation and dispute support?

Claim preparation focuses on establishing entitlement, causation, impact, substantiation, and relief. Dispute support applies the same material in a contested setting, including rebuttal, negotiation, adjudication, arbitration-facing submissions, or settlement strategy.

The usual documents include the contract, amendments, correspondence, notices, programmes, progress reports, meeting minutes, payment records, variation records, delay logs, site records, and any existing claim or response submissions.

10. Can Aegis help if the project records are incomplete?

Yes. Aegis can review available records, identify gaps, reconstruct event chronology, assess evidential weaknesses, and advise what further records are required to support or defend the claim.

11. Are client and project details confidential?

Yes. Aegis treats client information, project records, claims, dispute details, and commercial positions as confidential. Public references are not disclosed unless permitted by the client and appropriate for use.

12. When should Aegis be involved?

Aegis should be involved as early as possible. Early involvement helps protect notices, records, programme updates, correspondence, entitlement strategy, and commercial leverage before the dispute position becomes difficult to correct.
