Our professional engineers have acted as expert witnesses for litigation support, working with attorneys and insurance companies on disputes and claims. For example, we assess design and as-built documents and test materials in-house to determine whether the claim stems from a design, material, or construction defect. This knowledge is cross- referenced when we consult on design and materials issues and perform observations during and after construction projects — helping our clients avoid problems before they start. Serving architects, engineers, general contractors, project managers, developers, owner’s agents, attorneys, and insurance companies, AET understands the need for discovering the root of the problem and providing options to resolve the issue in a timely and cost-effective way.
