From Leopard Skin Spandex to the Witness Stand: Construction Defect & Fire Claims with Pete Fowler

Before Pete Fowler was one of the country's leading construction defect experts, he was digging ditches to fund a rock and roll career. These days, he trades the stage for the witness stand, but the performance instincts are the same: stay composed, know your material, and never let a smart opponent rattle you.
In this episode, Ashton sits down with Pete Fowler, founder of Pete Fowler Construction Consultants, a national firm with expertise spanning construction defects, fire investigation, slip-and-fall, and everything in between. Pete brings decades of forensic consulting experience and a refreshingly no-nonsense take on what it actually takes to move a construction defect case from a pile of documents to a recoverable claim.
They cover:
- The "minimum viable product" approach to expert engagement and why it saves time and money
- What lawyers and adjusters are doing wrong when they hand files to experts
- The post-COVID construction defect surge and the specific claim types you should be watching
Plus, Pete shares why organized files are worth more than you think and what a cabinet falling on someone's foot has to do with the state of American construction.
