How Mann & Associates global Do Things Differently

In a recent instruction Mann & Associates global were engaged to provide litigation support in a dispute involving a luxury spa business that suffered a significant operational interruption following the rupture of a sewerage pipe, resulting in widespread contamination of its treatment and wellness facilities.

The incident forced a complete closure of the premises, severely impacting customer bookings, damaging reputation, and disrupting normal trading activities over an extended period. Working closely with the client’s legal advisers, we were asked to assess the financial impact of the event and provide an independent quantification of loss.

Our forensic team conducted a detailed assessment of loss of profits, analysing historic trading performance, seasonal trends, booking patterns and overhead structures to isolate the effect of the interruption.

We prepared a comprehensive expert report setting out a clear and defensible methodology for quantifying business interruption losses, including assumptions on recovery trajectory and mitigation efforts. The report was designed to withstand scrutiny in a contentious environment and provide a transparent evidential basis for negotiation.

The expert analysis proved pivotal in supporting settlement discussions between the parties. By providing a clear and credible valuation of losses, the report helped narrow the issues in dispute and facilitated a successfully negotiated agreement without the need for prolonged litigation.

The outcome preserved commercial relationships where possible and demonstrated the value of early, robust forensic input in resolving complex business interruption claims.
