Plastics Expert Witnesses

Today’s world is filled with plastics. It is one of the most adaptable products in the modern world. Almost everything people use every day is partially or totally made from plastics. Plastics contain elements such as carbon, chlorine, nitrogen, and sulfur. These elements are called polymers, which can be produced by converting natural products or chemicals that come from oil, natural gas, or coal. Plastics can be shaped and molded with heat and pressure. Our expert witnesses, speakers, and consultants on plastics are scholars, researchers and professionals from major universities and professionals including but not limited to environment, Failure Analysis, Food Safety, forensics, indoor air quality, materials, polymers, spectroscopy, statistics, and technology. Our plastics witnesses have successfully testified for both the plaintiff and defense.
