The firm represented the prime contractor and one of its subcontractors against Caltrans on a claim for extra costs from delay and disruption caused by rock hardness well in excess of that shown in the soils report. Caltrans refused to entertain any part of the claim or even mediate. After the Firm completed its depositions of Caltrans personnel, Caltrans paid nearly the entire claim amount of close to $1.5 million.
