What does a forensic engineering firm do?

Forensic engineering is the investigation of materials, systems, or components that fail or do not operate or function as intended – in order to provide impartial scientific and engineering evidence for use in the courts of law. Common types of engineering analysis include structural failures, fire and explosion investigations, product defect analysis, and accident reconstruction. Such accidents, failures or malfunctions at times lead to costly insurance claims and litigation. Down Forensic Engineering, Inc.
