SERVICE FAQ
Procurement and operating questions.
Does MODLAN guarantee an expert opinion?
No. Qualified experts must reach their own opinions from the evidence and methodology.
Can an investigator testify too?
An investigator may testify to their own work where permitted; expert opinion is a distinct role requiring appropriate qualification.
Can this include engineering experts?
Yes, through the Forensic Engineering pathway and appropriate jurisdictional/licensure controls.
Are expert materials shared publicly?
No. Matter materials use controlled evidence and counsel-approved disclosure paths.
