There can be many different types of contractual dispute and at Forths, over the years, we have undertaken work in respect of many different types using our skills to assess quantum.

Damages arise when, as a result of the breach of a contract (by one party to the contract) losses are incurred by the other party and a remedy is sought, in law, to address these losses.

Such disputes can range from a total breach of contract, such that the contract that was signed was never carried out or where the contract has been partially not adhered to.

In either situation the specific provisions of the contract have not been adhered to and losses have been sustained. Examples of contractual disputes involve contracts to supply goods (for which goods were not supplied), breach of warranty claims, i.e. breach of specific provisions within contracts.

At Forths we will be in a position to help quantify losses in respect of most contract breaches.
