Settlement conferences, expert witness services, depositions and testimony in geotechnically oriented or related cases are all a part of our repoitoire. From individual insurance cases, third party suits and claims to class action lawsuits we have provided services to attorneys and legal firms. We’ve also developed proposed repair schemes for projects for use in cost estimating for settlements and prepared and given video, photo and poster board presentations in settlement conferences and court room presentations One of the most gratifying tasks in providing expert witness services is educating and coaching attorneys with engineering defense and plaintiff strategies and engineering standards of care.
Having worked in the geotechnical forensic engineering arena we have been involved in many cases where design professionals, contractors and developers have been included in a case and had their insurance carriers cover large losses when it comes to repairing geotechnical problems.
