Forensic Investigation Following a Suspicious Fire
When fires or explosions occur, forensic investigators play a crucial role in determining their cause. Our team gathers evidence by analyzing the scene and interviewing key stakeholders. Through knowledge and years of experience, our expert investigators can pinpoint the most likely cause, often without needing complex laboratory tests. However, when something unusual points to a potentially suspicious fire, the investigation becomes more complex.
