Portuguese term or phrase: por quem não assistir a razão

"A xxx, mediante aviso do CLIENTE, examinará, no prazo máximo de oito horas úteis, e no horário normal de expediente, o equipamento instalado de modo a verificar e aquilatar de possíveis avarias e ou prováveis paragens.

De comum acordo poderá ser solicitada a intervenção de uma ENTIDADE OFICIAL para a sua avaliação, sendo o respectivo pagamento a efectuar por quem não assistir a razão."

This doesn't make sense to me... who exactly is responsible for the corresponding payment? And how would I phrase this accurately in English?

Thanks so much in advance for your ideas!
