What types of damages are available in the event of a breach?
Damages are an important part of construction contracts. It’s often one aspect that parties don’t think a lot about and may not receive the compensation that they are looking for. This video reviews several types of construction contract damages, including compensatory, incidental, liquidated, equitable and exemplary. Our speaker also discusses what the components are of these damages and how to prove them and what is recoverable.
