Who is Bergman Engineering

A Reputation Rooted in Respect

We care a lot about our reputation. As practicing engineers, we are responsible for oversight and compliance on a variety of fronts. Our experience in the field over the past 25 years informs all of our forensic investigations, assessments and reporting. When called to be an expert witness, we take the term “expert” very seriously. Our credentials and experience must stand up to scrutiny and you can be confident they will. Where supplementary expertise is required, we have it in areas ranging from geology and materials to the environment, chemistry and more.

Field-Tested Forensic Experience

Our forensic engineering services are provided to law firms, personal injury attorneys, insurance companies and prosecutors. We work for both plaintiffs and defendants to provide evidence-based reporting, reconstruction, assessments, consulting and a variety of other tools to bring clarity and confidence where there is often confusion and uncertainty. Our work unites more than 25 years of Civil Engineering field experience working in many capacities from planning and management to oversight and compliance. We have a strong track record of success. Our history demonstrates that most of the cases we consult on settle out of court or in arbitration. However, when a case does proceed to trial, we are amply qualified to give clear testimony in court and to provide lay-term explanations when they are necessary.

Our Mission

We help clients understand the complexity of their cases or claims so that they can make the most informed and intelligent decision possible with the available evidence, data and most-current technical knowledge. We view our role as providing critical information and insight on subject matter that is often foreign to the average person. We maintain high standards for our work product regardless of type (written, oral, investigative processes, modeling & simulation and research).
