THE LEGACYMARK APPROACH

When the facts are complex, clarity matters.

Every matter begins with a careful evaluation of the facts, available evidence, and questions in dispute. Our experts apply relevant technical standards, industry practices, or scientific principles according to their respective disciplines to develop objective, well-supported opinions.

Based in Houston, TX, with locations in Denver, CO, and Phoenix, AZ, LegacyMark supports plaintiff and defense attorneys, insurers, businesses, and government entities nationwide. Our expert witness services include evaluating OSHA regulations, applicable industry standards, and scientific literature; reviewing incident documentation and testimony; and analyzing workplace conditions, hazard recognition, safety practices, and human behavior. In premises liability matters, we also evaluate walking surfaces, maintenance practices, risk foreseeability, and adherence to accepted safety standards.
