Construction Defect Investigations

When properties are not maintained on a regular basis, various issues can develop such as loose handrails, chipped steps, depressions in paved parking lots and the list goes on. Such defects, at times, results in minor to severe injuries to various parties such as tenants living in a residential setting to a consumer shopping at a mall. The law takes these cases seriously and forensic engineers can provide a valuable service in performing a site investigation in determining whether the original construction/design was appropriate and the periodic maintenance plan.
