Arcadis found that the average dollar amount in dispute in construction lawsuits increased 40% in 2022.
“When the workforce is diminished and you don’t have enough people to work on these projects, then that opens to door to more potential issues and even more litigation because you’re going to see contractors and subcontractors having to compensate,” said construction lawyer Jordan Nadel of Miami-based law firm Mark Migdal & Hayden.
"It is common to find general contract language relating to delays outside of the contractor’s control or force majeure. However, it is better practice to specifically address supply chain disruptions in the agreement. Failure to do so could lead to claims or litigation concerning whether supply chain-related delay is excusable or compensable. Such a provision will, at a minimum, allow the contractor an extension of time relating to the delay."
