When an injury or death occurs as part of a construction project, our experts are frequently retained to determine how the incident happened and why it occurred. In the course of our investigations we evaluate the actions of the injured worker, their employer, other entities on the site, and the equipment and machinery involved.

Our experts are qualified by way of their training, education, and experience; they are degreed civil engineers with decades of experience on construction sites.
