Is engineering counsel standalone or part of a retainer?

Both. It is included for retained clients and offered standalone on a fixed-fee basis.

Do you specify equipment or recommend brands?

We assess on merit. We hold no preferred-vendor arrangements.

Can you support an insurance claim with technical reporting?

Yes. We prepare independent technical reports for underwriters when a claim is contested.
