Forensic Tree Experts
Forensic Investigation & Tree Failure Analysis
When a tree or tree-part breaks or permanently deforms in response to a force applied by the environment, we say that the tree has failed. Such tree failures often result from many factors interacting over long periods of time, before one factor creates a stress that the tree can no longer withstand. Determination of primary versus contributing factors, as well as the degree to which these might have been knowable, is a specialty within arboriculture that LaMana Consulting Foresters offers to our clients.
