Construction Defect Claim Services

Service you'd expect from a construction market leader

When construction contractors face a construction defect claim, they need the help of claim professionals experienced at handling the challenges these types of claims present. Construction defect claims usually involve progressive damage, so the actual date of the loss is unknown, uncertain or ongoing. The construction defect claim professional must determine not only what caused the loss and when, but track down the potentially numerous responsible parties and insurance policies involved.

Piecing together these complex claims requires not only detective-like skill, but a solid understanding of construction risks, the insurance policies that address them and the divisive perils often involved in these types of claims.

Our Construction Defect Claims team offers our customers:

  • Specialization:  We handle only construction defect-related claims—primarily the third-party property damage claims that arise after construction has been completed, but also third-party property and bodily injury claims involving allegations of mold.
  • Regional focus:  Our geographic spread means we have the local knowledge and resources to help move the claim process along as quickly and easily as possible.
  • Technical knowledge: Our team has an in-depth knowledge of all construction industry policies and is comprised largely of lawyers and construction-industry specialists.
