In complex construction disputes — particularly those involving technical, financial or scheduling issues — the strategic use of expert witnesses can be the key to a successful outcome. Join us for an insightful webinar that explores how to effectively engage and leverage experts throughout the lifecycle of a major construction project to ensure that you are well-positioned to respond to disputes and proactively avoid disputes before they arise. Participants will also gain a broader understanding of the construction project lifecycle, with insights into each phase — from the RFP and procurement stage through to project execution, completion and dispute resolution.
