What Is a Structural Expert Witness?
A structural expert witness is a licensed professional engineer who investigates structural conditions and provides expert opinions for legal cases. This includes reviewing design documents, inspecting properties, analyzing construction practices, and determining whether structures meet accepted engineering standards. Our experts translate technical findings into clear explanations that can be understood by legal teams, judges, and juries.
