Our team of certified medical professionals and professional engineers offers a comprehensive range of services to address the complex medical issues involved in accident and incident investigations, occupational health, injury analysis, and clinical forensic analysis.
When investigating occupational, aerospace, and clinical medicine incidents, we offer in-depth analyses of medical records, toxicology reports, and autopsy reports to determine causation, contributing factors, and the extent of injuries sustained. The expertise of our forensic pathology team provides insights into wound classification, vitality, and the cause of injuries, as well as their relation to the manner and time of death.
Specializing in investigative services and evaluations within the transportation and aviation industries, we examine medical certifications, evaluate cognitive and psychiatric fitness for duty, and consider the contribution of human factors to performance issues.
Our approach is grounded in a deep understanding of medical and engineering principles with multidisciplinary support from our advanced laboratory facilities and visualization experts. Using a client-centered approach that emphasizes timely and efficient communication, we provide solutions that meet the unique needs of each investigation.
