Insurance for Construction Claims & Delay Consultants

Claims consultants evaluate project records, costs, and timelines to support the preparation, analysis, or resolution of claims. Their work may include document review, damages assessment, and coordination with legal or project teams.

Exposure is tied to how information is interpreted and how conclusions are presented. Work is often used in negotiations, mediation, or formal disputes. We review how your services are structured before making any recommendation.

Why this matters

Carriers Don’t Always Understand What You Do.

Expert and testifying work is professional work, but many policies are unclear about it. The details decide whether it is included.

When the work is misread

  • Expert witness work left out of the definition of professional services
  • Investigations treated like design or construction
  • Opinions others rely on in court not considered at all
  • Work for a company you own falling into an exclusion

How we submit your firm

  • Your investigative and testifying work described plainly
  • Policy wording checked for expert and litigation support work
  • Forms that fit forensic and claims consulting
  • Ownership and related party work reviewed up front

Common Gaps

Where Analysis Is Reinterpreted

Challenges arise when conclusions are reviewed or contested.

Assumptions challenged by opposing parties, data interpreted differently, findings applied beyond the original scope.

Coverage that appears sufficient at a high level may not reflect how work is used in dispute settings.

Questions We Hear From Construction Claims & Delay Consultants.

Expert and forensic firms ask whether testimony counts as a professional service, and what to do when a report ends up in a fight.

Answers are general. Your policy and your contract always control.

Ask yours on a 15-minute call
Is expert witness work covered?

Some policies include it under a broad definition of professional services. Others need it named. We ask the carrier to confirm and to amend the definition if needed.

A subpoena arrived. Is that a claim?

Not always, but it can be a circumstance worth reporting. Send it to us and your carrier before you respond.

Someone is threatening a licensing board complaint.

Some policies include board complaint defense as an added coverage, usually with a smaller limit. Check yours before you need it.

A client's attorney sent a letter. Is that a claim?

Often, yes, or at least a circumstance worth reporting. Professional liability is usually written claims-made, so the carrier needs to hear about it while the policy is in force. Send us the letter, the contract and the related emails, and we help you report it the same day. Do not wait for a lawsuit.
