DWR Consultants, Inc. has experience in expert consultation, depositions, and trial testimony supporting both geotechnical and environmental cases. In addition, we perform numerous investigations for insurance claims. However, the bulk of our business involves those day-to-day activities, supporting the commercial and residential development industry for their geotechnical and environmental needs. This keeps us at the cutting edge of current practice.

We have prepared forensic engineering reports, supporting claims, depositions, and court testimony in the following areas:

1. Foundation failures for both shallow and deep foundations.
2. Slope failures including water induced debris slides.
3. Standard-of-Care for environmental assessments.
4. Vibration damage for construction equipment.
5. Groundwater contamination migration from other properties to the Client property.
6. Alleged contractor negligence for failure to provide sufficient access (slope failure) for a concrete truck.
7. Alleged contractor negligence for constructing a facility over a "dumped fill" site.
8. Off-site groundwater induced slope failure on a property.
9. Erosion abd sedimentation of properties.

We focus on preventing failures! That is why The United States Deparment of Energy, retained us to serve as their expert on earthworks for the construction of a multi-billion dollar nuclear waste treatment plant.
