Planning Expert Witnesses
The term “planning” essentially refers to a proposed or tentative project or course of action. These plans reduce the danger of a damaging, unanticipated event that could damage a company or organization. The planning process determines in advance what is to be done, who is to do it, how it is to be done, and when it is to be done. Our planning expert witnesses, speakers, and consultants specialize in a broad array of disciplines, including electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, architecture, city planning, urban design, zoning, land use planning, and public policy analysis. They have published on various subjects within their specific field of expertise. Our experts have testified on a variety of topics for both the plaintiff and the defendant.
