Failure analysis is a comprehensive, forensic investigation into the reasons why a product or component has failed. Working with failed products or components, forensic engineers use a variety of examination techniques and testing methods to identify and evaluate specific root causes of the failure. Once a cause has been determined, steps can be taken to modify or redesign the product to prevent future failures. Our testing capabilities include:
– Material Analysis
– Failure Analysis
– Metallurgical Testing
Poor Design
Despite state-of-the-art engineering and manufacturing practices, electrical and electronic products and components sometimes fail under actual use conditions. Such failures can be attributed to a range of causes, including inadequate design, material quality issues, or the absence of sufficiently rigid manufacturing specifications.
Material Failures
Failure analysis testing can be valuable in any situation where knowing the true causes of a failure will provide the much-needed information for a project. Our materials, metallurgical, and mechanical testing experts have the experience to determine the cause and the solution building a course of action from the results.
Low Tolerances
Failure analysis in the electrical, mechanical, and physical investigation provides the cause and sequence of events that lead to a condition in which the product may have caused an accident due to failure. If a product or component fails or causes a serious accident, SEAL applies science to provide the actionable information research needed.

The above case has settled. Enclosed is a check for the outstanding balance for your services. Thank you for your services in this matter. I will gladly provide a reference for you to other lawyers and will contact you first the next time I need to retain an engineer.
GOOD NEWS! Case settled today at mediation. Please forward invoice for services rendered. We really appreciate your help in this matter and with your assistance we were able to settle for a reasonable amount
Dear Mr. Johnson
I appreciate you as well as Mr. Gary Jackson from your office taking the time to inspect the accident site with me yesterday. Your professional assistance in this unfortunate matter remains truly appreciated.
I want to let you know how much I appreciated your prompt response after the crane accident. Your assistance and services were invaluable. You provided me with calming perspective during a very difficult time. I hope that I can call on you again if I ever find myself in a similar unfortunate situation. I will certainly recommend you and your company to others.
Brian and Kurt:
We wanted to let you both know that the case settled this week. Your work was instrumental in moving the case to resolution and we appreciate your assistance in getting here. We look forward to working with you in the future.
I met with Mr. Gary Jackson and Mr. Greig Latham today, and I appreciate you guys making it out this quickly, I was very impressed.
I just wanted to say thank you for appearing as an expert witness of the trial. Your testimony was very helpful. FYI – the jury brought back a plaintiff’s verdict for $3.8 million. Huge win.
I wanted to let you know that I was able to review my claim with a **** supervisor this morning, and he ruled the decision in my favor. The deciding factor that convinced him to overrule company policy (requiring their own inspection of the physical evidence)
was your report. I can't tell you how grateful I am for your work.
