Construction investigation documents for court

Which document is needed

• An inspection or survey record documents the condition, signs observed and actions performed within the agreed scope.
• A specialist opinion contains an investigation conducted under a contract, its reasoning and conclusions on the assignment.
• A review examines the report under review and related materials.
• An information letter states the feasibility, conditions, cost and timeframe of a proposed investigation.
• A court-appointed expert report is prepared when an expert examination is ordered under the established procedural rules.

Preparing a request

• State your role in the case, contact details and the required outcome.
• Attach the court order, if available, and the proposed questions.
• Provide the case number, court and hearing date, if known.
• Describe the property, dispute, available materials and access restrictions.
• If applying through a representative, prepare evidence of their authority.

Delivery of materials and results

A representative or payer does not automatically become the recipient of the result. The recipient and their authority are agreed with the Client. A letter on the feasibility of an investigation is not a substantive conclusion; the result does not guarantee admission as evidence or a particular court decision.
