Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you have an office in Orlando?
Oxley serves Orlando and Central Florida construction matters from Clearwater. Travel for site work, depositions, hearings or trial depends on the engagement.
Which courts and forums do your experts work in?
Florida state circuit courts, including the Ninth Circuit (Orange and Osceola), federal court, and arbitration (including AAA) and mediation. CVs and testimony histories are available to counsel on request.
Do you work for owners or contractors?
Both: owners, developers, public entities, general contractors, subcontractors, insurers and their counsel. The opinion follows the record.
What is a time impact analysis?
A time impact analysis models the relationship between identified events and a schedule. The question, timing, schedule selection and assumptions affect what the result represents.
Can you review an opposing expert's analysis?
