Engineering & Construction

When your case involves engineering or construction disputes, the right expert witness makes all the difference. Intellex has been connecting attorneys with credentialed engineering and construction experts since 1984 — across both plaintiff and defense matters, in federal and state courts nationwide.

Our experts don’t just know the technical details. They know how to explain complex engineering concepts clearly and credibly to a judge, jury, or arbitration panel. And if your case requires a sub-specialty outside those listed here, your Intellex advisor will find the right expert.
