AMTI offers marine industry clients specialized casualty investigation services that can provide insight and clarity into the essential character of maritime accidents. As a full spectrum accident investigation firm AMTI can deliver valuable findings, conclusions and expert opinions on causation -- whether it's a vessel casualty, port facility accident or personal injury occurrence.
Our marine casualty investigators and marine engineers can utilize a variety of analytical techniques from basic to advanced, including photogrammetry, computer simulations and reconstruction and microscopic failure analysis.
AMTI's engineers and marine surveyors are experienced experts in the forensic investigation of a wide spectrum of maritime accidents. They are trained to carefully gather all pertinent data, evaluate the evidence using sound analytical practices and develop clear, supportable conclusions that are valuable not only for causation and liability claims but can also be used to prevent reoccurrence of property damage or personnel injuries.
Our goal is to “cover all of the bases” so that our conclusions will hold up under the most intense scrutiny.
When relevant we visit the site of a marine casualty to secure physical evidence, obtain precise measurements and survey the location. As appropriate we perform visibility studies, determine and re-create the conditions prior to the accident, conduct interviews and review witness statements.
By expeditiously pursuing and developing as much relevant evidence as possible we ensure that our findings and conclusions are fully supportable.
