Forensics
Identifying contaminant sources and the timing of their release is an important factor in understanding chemical fate and transport, assessing remedial actions, and resolving complex questions concerning contribution, source attribution, and cost allocation. Our forensic specialists excel at deconstructing the evidence and building fact-based cases to address these important issues. With our subject matter expertise and innate multidisciplinary perspective, we provide fresh insights that are robust, credible, and compelling.

allocation
Issues of divisibility, contribution, cost recovery, and allocation frequently arise when addressing response costs at multiparty environmental sites. We employ scientifically defensible technical analyses to support divisibility, and develop equitable allocation or apportionment plans. By analyzing the facts related to source, release, and fate along with information on operational history and/or use, we build robust allocation approaches.

engineering & construction

By evaluating the circumstances surrounding complicated engineering design and construction matters—including delays and scheduling, defects, and the intricacies of contracting—we provide clear, convincing, and objective technical opinions.
