Expert Witness and Litigation Support

CopelandBEC provides building envelope expert witness services to attorneys who need to support their case with clear explanations of complex technical issues.

Finding a well-credentialed expert who can also communicate well can be a challenge. We understand this and our experts not only produce clear fact-based reports and testimony, but we communicate in a way that regular people can understand.

We maintain the utmost integrity by telling it like is and grounding our opinions in contract documents, building codes, and respected industry standards.

We offer expert witness services across our service area including Massachusetts and all of New England, Florida, Georgia, Ohio, and Minnesota.

Our founder, Matt Copeland, has extensive experience in expert witness, litigation support, and dispute resolution work.
