Litigation Support
When challenges involve litigation, our scientists can help. With experts in many disciplines and industries, we provide the technical and professional expertise necessary to support legal challenges to the food and beverage industries. Ph.D. scientists will design independent investigations, supervise laboratory analyses and write comprehensive reports. They are skilled in explaining technical methods and results in clear and understandable terms.
Litigation support services include:
- Evaluation of cases

- Critical review of data
- Literature searches
- Trial preparation
- Depositions and trial testimony
