An Expert Witness is a critical need in cases that go to court
The term “claims adjustment” refers to the process by which an insurance company investigates a claim to determine the extent of liability. The process may include interviewing witnesses, consulting hospital records, examining damaged property—and speaking at length with the claimant. Many insurance companies maintain claims adjustment branches to handle claims in-house, and independent claims adjusters also work to investigate claims as objective third parties.
Engineers offer important expertise in the realm of claims adjustment. During an investigation of a claim, a qualified engineering consultant can examine the site to determine the placement/cause of product fractures or other physical damage. He may also perform metallurgical analysis to see if malfunctioning equipment possessed hidden flaws. An electrical engineer can examine the writing of an electrical system to determine where and how a short occurred, while a mechanical engineer can check elements such as pressure control, liquid flow and the impact of temperature on various components.
If a claim involves fire damage, the engineer can determine the extent of the damage, and how much should be assessed for repairs. Similarly, an engineering consultant can examine a chemical spill both to determine how much damage was caused—and whether elements like storage and transport were sufficient to contain the spill. Should the case go to court, it’s critical to hire a qualified engineer as an expert witness for your side. Select someone who can explain complex terms in a clear, user-friendly fashion to the laymen on a jury.
