Successfully Recovered $200k in Extras Claim
ATAC LAW acted on behalf of a mechanical contractor making a claim for extras on a mechanical subcontract against a general contractor on a large high rise building in Surrey, British Columbia. The mechanical contractor was claiming extras in the amount of $200,000.00 over and above its contract price with the general contractor.
ATAC LAW attended the property to review the work of the mechanical subcontractor and reviewed large volumes of documentation to prepare a case for the mechanical contractor’s claims for extras.
Shortly after submitting the report to the general contractor, ATAC LAW was able to obtain full payment on the mechanical contractor’s claim for $200,000.00 of extras.
Part of the success of this claim was achieved through the use of the alternative dispute resolution mechanisms in the CCDC set of contracts and the use of a builder’s lien to put pressure on the general contractor. This result was achieved without having to file any court actions. If you have any construction related legal issues, please contact our experienced legal team.
