We conduct origin and cause investigations for structure, vehicle, and equipment fires and explosions using a combination of our engineering & scientific expertise, experience, and proven fire science from NFPA 921 and other engineering texts. We perform root cause analysis using proven scientific and engineering principles to determine the failure of machinery, equipment, products, and processes for litigation and subrogation purposes.
We provide structural and building code assessments to damaged structures, and fully engineered drawings for residential and commercial structures damaged as a result of fire, water loss, and strong weather events. We investigate slip, trip & fall claims by analyzing environmental factors to determine building code compliance, surface friction, and hazard perception.

Services
We offer a wide range of services to professionals in the insurance and legal industries who adjust and litigate claims. We investigate claims across North America and we accept assignments 24/7, so you are never without an expert to call. We offer free consultations on all assignments, so if you are unsure whether or not a loss would benefit from an engineering investigation, feel free to call for a consultation.
With over 30 years of experience in Forensic Engineering related to insurance losses, we offer a broad and comprehensive base of technical knowledge and analytical skills. We also have a network of trusted experts whom we employ to assist us when a loss requires skills outside our particular areas of expertise.
We offer free seminars as part of our service to our clients. These seminars can be customized to fit your organization's particular requirements and concerns, or we can create a custom seminar on a topic not listed below. Seminars can be presented formally or as part of a more casual "lunch & learn" session.
