36+ Years of Construction Leadership
Independent construction expert witness and litigation support services for healthcare facilities, medical offices, corporate interiors, tenant improvements, and other complex interior construction projects nationwide.
RFH Partners helps attorneys, owners, lenders, and other project stakeholders understand construction performance, project administration, costs, schedules, change orders, deficiencies, and project documentation.
Led by Robert Hession, a construction executive with more than 36 years of commercial construction and senior leadership experience, each engagement receives practical, principal-led analysis grounded in real-world construction practices.
Healthcare and corporate interior projects often involve compressed schedules, occupied spaces, extensive mechanical and electrical coordination, phased construction, exacting finish requirements, and numerous project participants.
When a construction dispute develops, the underlying issues may include incomplete coordination, scope gaps, deficient workmanship, schedule disruption, unsupported change orders, ineffective project administration, or inadequate documentation.
RFH Partners evaluates the project records, site conditions, contract requirements, and construction practices to help determine what occurred, why it occurred, and how the resulting cost or schedule impacts may be evaluated.


Healthcare construction projects require disciplined planning, coordination, documentation, and execution. These matters may involve hospitals, outpatient facilities, medical offices, diagnostic spaces, laboratories, treatment areas, and administrative environments.
Healthcare construction expert analysis may address:
Construction phasing and work in occupied facilities
Contractor and construction-manager performance
Mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and life-safety coordination
Shutdowns, tie-ins, temporary services, and access planning
Project-specific infection-control and containment requirements
Schedule delays and milestone performance
Change orders, deficient work, and corrective costs
Testing, commissioning coordination, punch-list, and closeout issues
Corporate interior projects frequently involve fast-track delivery, demanding completion dates, specialized building systems, high-quality finishes, occupied-building logistics, and coordination between tenant improvements and base-building conditions.
RFH Partners assists with construction disputes involving corporate headquarters, office renovations, tenant fit-outs, workplace reconfigurations, executive spaces, conference facilities, amenity areas, and multi floor interior construction programs.
