The Knowledge Group Has Scheduled a Live Webcast on 2026 Construction Claims Update: Change Orders, Project Delays, and Emerging Risks

The Knowledge Group, a leading producer of regulatory-focused webcasts, announced today that it has scheduled a live webcast entitled: 2026 Construction Claims Update: Change Orders, Project Delays, and Emerging Risks.

Jersey City, NJ, October 07, 2026 --(PR.com)-- This event is scheduled for October 19, 2026, from 12:00 pm to 1:00 pm (ET).

Event Summary:

Changes, delays and payment disagreements can develop into substantial construction disputes. Assessing these disputes requires a clear account of what happened, how the contract allocates responsibility, and what the evidence establishes about the resulting time and cost.

In this CLE webinar, Christian Johansen, Managing Partner at Bruun & Hjejle, will examine how to prepare, evaluate and resolve construction claims, using the FIDIC 2017 conditions as the principal framework. Through practical examples, he will explore how to substantiate variations, distinguish delay from disruption, assess entitlement to additional time and compensation, and preserve claims through timely notices and contemporaneous records. The program will also address unforeseen site conditions, payment disputes and contractual approaches to allocating risk.

Designed for construction attorneys and in-house counsel, the session will connect contract administration with dispute strategy: identifying weaknesses in claims and defenses, evaluating damages, narrowing disputed issues, and preparing evidence for negotiation, adjudication or arbitration. Participants will gain a structured approach to advising clients throughout the life of a construction claim, from the initial event to its resolution.

Key topics include:
· Key legal considerations for documenting and substantiating change orders.
· Effective methods for evaluating and proving delay and disruption claims.
· Contractual strategies for allocating risk and addressing potential construction claims.
· Legal considerations for evaluating damages and additional compensation claims.
· Practical approaches to preserving contractual notice and documentation requirements.
· Effective strategies for negotiating and resolving complex construction disputes.
· Key considerations for preparing construction claims and defenses for litigation or arbitration.
