Have Questions?
We specialize in cases involving electrical, thermal, and radiation injuries, providing expert analysis and testimony for attorneys and corporations.
We evaluate how a device interacts with the human body, combining laboratory testing with computational simulation to assess electrical, thermal, and radiation exposure risks and to check compliance with safety standards. Our analysis identifies potential injury risks before they reach users.
Yes. We analyze workplace injuries to determine the cause and mechanism, reconstructing how an electrical, thermal, or radiation exposure produced the injury. Our findings clarify complex cases and support evidence-based conclusions in legal and workplace investigations.
Our work is led by Dr. Raphael C. Lee, MD, ScD, a surgeon and biomedical engineer and a University of Chicago distinguished service professor who is recognized as one of the leading authorities on the biophysics of electrical injury. Our team pairs advanced medical training with engineering doctorates, and our analysis is grounded in decades of peer-reviewed research on how electrical, thermal, and radiation forces injure the body. That combination lets us explain not just that an injury occurred, but how, in terms that hold up in court and in technical review.
