Who’s fault is it anyways? Featuring Ben Winsor

In this episode, Aaron is joined by Ben Winsor, a managing consultant at Aperture LLC. Ben and his team specialize in analyzing data from construction projects that are going through the litigation process. Construction consultants like Ben forensically analyze project data like schedules and cost reports, assist with claim preparation, write reports and provide expert witness testimony at trials.

Ben is not a lawyer, but he is someone you want on you and your lawyer’s side during litigation. Ben and his team help their client calculate damages and identify entitlement for those damages. Ideally, matters can be settled before a courtroom or arbitration is needed.  Settlement can potentially save contractors lots of time, money, and headaches so they can do what they do best- build. If the matter must be decided by the terms of the contract, Ben will testify as an expert witness to assist the trier of fact in understanding the evidence put forth by each side. If you want to learn more about the legal side of contracting, this episode is for you. Connect with Ben on LinkedIn if you need assistance on your project or have a question about how the process works.
