Scientific Certainty in Forensic Fire & Earthquake Investigation
With our modern technology and forensic expert team, we uncover the origins of fires, analyze the earthquake resilience of structures, and prepare legal opinions ready for submission to courts under CMK Art. 67 and HMK Art. 293 standards.
Our Service Areas
Scientific solutions ranging from fire origin determination to earthquake condition assessment, from chemical accelerant analysis to court expert-witness opinions.
Fire Scene Analysis
Technical on-site examination following a fire, evaluation of burn patterns (V-formations), and scientific forensic determination of initial findings.
Electrical Fire Analysis
Determination, through microscopic examination of wiring, short circuits, arcing, and melting beads, of whether electrical damage was the primary cause or a secondary effect.
Accelerant Use Analysis
Detection, using GC-MS laboratory data, of whether gasoline, thinner, or volatile solvents were used in a fire, and confirmation or refutation of arson suspicion.
Fault and Liability Analysis
In insurance disputes: establishing the parties' technical obligations, negligence, carelessness, and causal link, and determining fault ratios.
Building Seismic Condition Analysis
Technical reporting of a building's seismic performance through examination of its load-bearing systems, soil surveys, and core samples.
Forensic Document Examination
Scientific verification of forensic documents to be submitted to courts through forged-signature, tampering, and ink analyses.
A 4-Stage Forensic Investigation Process
Reaching a conclusive report that can be submitted to judicial authorities, before evidence is lost, proceeds step by step after a fire or earthquake.
Scene & Evidence Collection
Our field experts preserve heat/burn patterns (V-pattern), melting points, and physical evidence at the scene.
Laboratory Analysis
Volatile accelerant (gasoline, thinner) residues are tested using GC-MS chromatography instruments and under the microscope.
Fault & Liability Determination
Electrical arc detection, regulatory compliance, and the parties' fault ratios are clarified by establishing the causal link.
Court-Compliant Report
A scientific opinion report valid in court under CMK Art. 67 & HMK Art. 293 is prepared and delivered.
Irrefutable Technical and Scientific Evidence Before Justice
In litigation, insurance subrogation claims, or objections to court bilirkişi reports, your strongest defense is scientific data.
Compliant with HMK Art. 293 & CMK Art. 67
The expert opinion reports we prepare carry legal evidentiary weight before judges and courts.
Independent Forensic Laboratory
Fully objective scientific analysis, taking no side, conducted strictly according to scientific principles.
High Data Security & NDA
All your case files and data are kept under confidentiality agreements (NDA) and KVKK standards.
Want to Challenge a Bilirkişi Report?
If you believe an official bilirkişi report contains a technical error or omission, a scientific 'Expert Opinion' (HMK 293) submitted to the court can lead the judge to refer the file to a new bilirkişi or forensic authority.
