About Us
As forensic engineers, our goal is to bring clarity to situations involving property loss, product failures and personal injuries by applying our unique methodology and experience to establish “what happened” and “why did it happen”.

How Will You Know You Need Us?
In the world of property and casualty insurance, the results of our work can help in the following ways:
- speed resolution of a claim by validating the source & events leading to the loss,
- prevent repetition of claims by identifying a systemic issue or source of fraud,
- identify which party is likely responsible for the loss (subrogation),
- establish which policy covers the loss and if an exclusion applies,
- improve underwriting for specialized risks.
The following scenarios illustrate situations where our forensic engineer’s expertise will be useful.
- The claim involves multiple parties
- The nature of the incident is suspicious
- The other party has engaged the services of a forensic engineer
- The claim may be the subject of litigation
- The claim involves the failure of a specific product or piece of machinery
- The claim involves a personal injury
- There is structural damage
- You are self-insured for all or a portion of the loss
If you are repairing, reconstructing, or re-purposing a structure, our team of structural engineers, technologists and draftspersons provide turnkey service from initial consulting through to securing the appropriate building permits.
While the majority of our work is related to insurance claims, our expertise is equally applicable in the areas of:
- manufacturing
- transportation
- property management
- construction
- power generation
- commercial litigation
