Breach of Contract and Defective Products

Expertise in quantifying contractual damages. Analysis of the economic consequences of non-performance or defective products.

When is this expert opinion required?

The expert opinion involves analysing the economic consequences of a breach of contract or the delivery of defective products. It is required when a contract is not performed, is only partially performed, or is performed defectively, resulting in damages for one of the parties.

METHODOLOGY

The damages are assessed by comparing the actual situation with the situation that would have resulted from proper performance of the contract.

Analysis of the contract and the breach

Review of the terms of the contract, the respective obligations of the parties, and the nature of the breach (total, partial, or defective performance).

Determination of the assessment framework

Assessment of the damages either based on the contractual provisions or on the damage actually suffered.

Quantification of damages

Assessment of the economic impacts: lost margin, additional costs, operating losses, and, where applicable, reputational harm.

Report and support

Preparation of a memorandum for claimants or defendants, response to opposing arguments, and support in legal proceedings.

Total or partial non-performance of a contract, termination or interruption of a contractual relationship, and the delivery of defective products, parts, or equipment.
