CONSTRUCTION CLAIMS ANALYSIS
|
| |
Our firm’s dispute analysis goes directly to the issues in controversy to show whether a claim has merit and which party might be liable under the law. We can provide schedule and cost analysis in addition to physical assessment of possible defective design and construction methods using multi-disciplined resources including structural, mechanical, electrical and permits consultants, if necessary. |

LITIGATION SUPPORT

The law offices of Jorge Calderón López can provide you with assistance throughout the litigation process including construction documents management as well as to provide advice in the multiple phases of the discovery process including preparation of interrogatories, and assistance in depositions, among others. |

CLAIMS AVOIDANCE/RISK ANALYSIS
|
| |
| We have the experience and technical training to review the design, bid, and construction documents for potential dispute-causing issues. At the design and construction documents preparation level, we can help identify possible risk issues early on in a project so they can be addressed appropriately and do not become future problems or controversies. During the construction phase, our advice-on approaches to dealing with potential disputes can help head them off in order to avoid controversies. |

ALTERNATIVE DISPUTE RESOLUTION SERVICES

Our firm strongly believes in alternate dispute resolution (ADR) process as means of avoiding litigation. We are qualified to mediate your construction dispute in the hopes of avoiding a judicial claim. Architect and attorney Jorge Calderón López is also a certified mediator by the Puerto Rico’s Alternate Dispute Resolution Office which operates under the Puerto Rico Supreme Court. Arbitration services are also available from our firm to help settle controversies in construction projects. We can provide services to help you arrive at a fair, evenhanded resolution with all parties. |
