Expert Witness & Technical Due Diligence
Forensic Food Diagnostics, Legal Advisory
& M&A Technical Auditing Programs
Compile authoritative technical assessments and scientific position papers for litigation or regulatory disputes. We evaluate complex food science, thermal calculations, and microbiological reports to build robust evidence.
Conduct comprehensive pre-acquisition facility audits. We assess structural integrity, process flows, equipment condition, capacity limitations, and sanitary design risks to determine operational feasibility.
Lead investigations into foodborne outbreaks, product recalls, or persistent facility pathogens. We implement genetic typing review, spatial mapping of pathogens, and environmental monitoring root cause analysis.
Diagnose chemical and physical food defects (off-flavors, packaging failures, premature spoilage, stability drops). We use forensic food chemistry to isolate contamination roots.
Review opposing witness testimonies, laboratory reports, and regulatory citation files. We provide independent technical audits to guide legal strategy during food law disputes.
Analyze corporate target assets for mergers and acquisitions. We audit training histories, recall statistics, food safety records, and CAPA metrics to outline technical liabilities.

Request a QuoteWhat a strong technical case file looks like
A technical case file stands or falls on separation between fact and opinion. Facts are the laboratory reports, thermal calculations, and process records, each tied to its method and date. Opinion is the expert's reading of what those facts mean for the dispute. When the two are kept apart and every opinion points back to a named document, the file survives cross-examination far better than a narrative that blends them.
When to bring in technical support
Early beats late. An expert brought in before positions harden can still request missing records, witness testing, and shape the questions asked. Late instruction limits the work to reviewing whatever documents already exist, which narrows every conclusion that follows.
