Expert Witness
Where disputes arise, or where expert technical advice pre-dispute is required, our Chartered Fire Engineers and Fire Engineers can provide advice and guidance across all areas of fire engineering within all types of buildings.
The team at BlueLight Fire Engineering have experience of working with a variety of stakeholders including contractors, developers, building owners, architects, specialist contractors and managing agents on disputes relating to the compliance of external facades and internal fire safety systems.
Experience gained from working with many top-tier law firms means our fire engineers are trusted to provide a professional and comprehensive service as part of all our expert witness appointments. Our previous experience includes organising and attending internal and external fire safety inspections, authoring initial advice reports, fully CPR35 compliant reports, adjudication reports and ad hoc advice papers, attending expert meetings, providing advice during mediation proceedings and preparing for court proceedings.
Our successful record in expert witness work has resulted in clients engaging our fire engineers to provide non-expert advice and assistance for other developments and property portfolios. We are able to assess and identify areas of risk and provide industry leading guidance on how these risks can be successfully mitigated.
