Services

Investigation, research and litigation services.

Construction litigation support from the first field visit to testimony. Building envelope and construction problems sometimes need to be resolved through litigation or arbitration; when that happens, the information has to make as much sense to attorneys as it does to building professionals.

Photo and Video Documentation

Photo and video documentation of site conditions, recorded with state-of-the-art cameras and prepared as trial-ready exhibits.

Project Costing and Repair Scopes
