We apply our expertise to the forensic investigation of engineering incidents to carry out failure analysis and provide an understanding of why the incident occurred.
We aim to tailor any investigation specifically to your needs, whether that be a desktop review of existing information, providing an initial opinion on cause or a fully detailed forensic investigation from inspecting the scene of the incident to providing a formal CPR-compliant report and evidence in Court, if required
We offer independent and impartial Expert Witness advice to Insurers, Loss adjusters, Solicitors, private clients and commercial/industrial organisations providing evidence in both criminal and civil cases in a wide range of areas. We investigate accidents and incidents in the UK and Overseas
Our list of services is not exhaustive, and cases will arise that do not appear to fit into a category. We are always happy to provide advice with no commitment, so if you need a Forensic Engineer and/or an Expert Witness to investigate and are unsure whether LFI have the correct expertise for you, then please contact us and we will do our best to help.
“I have worked with Mike on several cases. The breadth of his knowledge and expertise and his attention to detail are excellent. He works tirelessly to uncover the root cause of an incident and explains and illustrates his findings in reports in a very clear, concise way that are both easy to understand and to explain to the client. I would not hesitate to recommend.”

“We have instructed Mike on a number of cases over the years and have always been very impressed by his breadth of knowledge and his attention to detail. Mike is always amenable to travelling to clients and is very easy to liaise with; which makes running a case far easier. He is a very experienced and well-informed expert in his field; as well as being a consummate professional and helpful person to work with. I would highly recommend to anyone.”
Managing Director, forensic services provider
“I found Mike Lovis to be very approachable and helpful from the outset. He was always willing to have a chat about issues which proved very beneficial when trying to understand the science behind the problem. He had an excellent grasp of the subject matter, and causation, which ensured every angle was covered and fully addressed. His way of reporting, and use of photographs to illustrate his hypotheses, made things easy to understand and to explain to the client.”
