£650k recovered on a claim valued by the developer at £78k

Wingrove Law advised four homeowners on a small development in a claim against a national plc housebuilder relating to extensive defects in each of the homes.

A particular feature of the claim was that the developer's expert witnesses priced the claim at under £80,000, vastly lower than the amount the developer subsequently agreed to pay.

The valuation of the claim by the developer's experts was so conspicuous as to invite serious questions about the experts' competence and intergrity. The potential damage that can be done to homeowners by rogue experts who appear willing to compromise their ethics and even potentially perjure themselves for their paymasters can be enormous.

We can advise you on all aspects of pursuing a claim against your developer including preparation of persuasive expert evidence and skillful handling of problematic opponent experts.
