What These Cases Show
Investigations Across Fire, Structural, and Storm Damage
Each case study documents a real forensic investigation: the loss, the methodology our licensed engineers and certified fire investigators applied, and the findings that resulted. The cases span fire origin and cause, structural deterioration and failure, and storm and hail damage assessment.
They show how independent analysis supports insurance carriers, attorneys, and property owners in claims decisions and litigation. Findings rest on physical evidence, established methodology such as NFPA 921, and correlation with maintenance records and weather data.
