Introduction
For many project managers working in the engineering, procurement, construction and building industries, legal wrangling through the courts having jurisdiction, known as litigation, is a familiar if unfortunate experience. It involves a lengthy process of "discovery".

In short, you must treat it like a project - because it is a project!
