Fire protections systems have a deserved reputation for reliability and performance.  However, there are instances when fire protections systems either fail or do not perform as expected in response to a fire.  Poole Fire Protection has degreed and experienced fire protection engineering experts who perform forensic analyses of both active and passive fire protection systems to determine those real-world fire protection system failures.  The concepts of fire spread theory, causation, spoliation and the scientific method are evaluated as part of our review and evaluation methodology.

Following a fire or system failure that results in legal proceedings, knowing for certain the root cause will enable you to protect lives and property going forward.

Having a fire protection expert review an incident and provide supporting testimony during litigation can be crucial. With expertise in fire science, fire protection system design, building codes and life safety standards, our working fire protection engineers provide the investigation, comparative research, consultation, trial preparation and expert testimony you require for your legal proceedings. We prioritize investing in the training and education of our team to ensure they are always on the cutting edge of fire science.
