Presentation Overview
Contract language can quietly shift significant project risk, often long before a dispute arises. This presentation brings together legal and construction claims perspectives to explore how common contract provisions affect projects in practice, from standard of care and indemnification to changes, notice, and limitations of liability. The focus is on identifying risk early, understanding its real-world consequences, and taking practical steps to keep contract issues from becoming claims.
After attending this session, participants should be able to:
- Identify common contract provisions that allocate or transfer risk among project participants.
- Recognize project events and contractual issues that may develop into claims if they are not addressed promptly.
- Apply practical strategies for managing contractual risk during project execution before it develops into a claim.
