On June 1, 2006 one of the premier fire science testing and educational laboratories in the country, Fire Findings Laboratories packed-up and moved to a bigger, better location at 2026 Plaza Drive in Benton Harbor, Michigan. The new 6,000 square foot facility combines offices, testing and research facilities as well as an in-lab seminar site all under one roof.
Fire Findings has always provided excellent results from their unique testing and experiments, but due to lack of space in the prior facility, they were fairly limited in their set-ups and demonstration abilities. This new location provides Fire Findings with ample space to put forth a fresh focus on testing and also opens the doors to examine products more closely. For instance, clients can now take products from a scene and hold products examinations at this new facility in a fully equipped laboratory environment. They will be able to document those examinations using digital, still, video and micro-photography. This expanded space also offers the opportunity to re-create or experiment with fire-causing scenarios for cases that require deposition or trial testimony.
In addition to the new exceptional facilities, Fire Findings now has more room to host seminars and demonstrations with a focus on a more personal group setting. Although sessions will be taught in a laboratory setting that is used for product examinations and testing, a specific space that houses approximately 40 people has been designed. It includes larger washrooms and a kitchen, making it a more comfortable and pleasant experience for all attendees.
This new facility also allows Fire Findings the space to incorporate the voluminous number of artifacts it has accumulated over the years which are used in seminar demonstrations. There is a larger setting area from which to view demonstrations.
Finally, Tedford & Henry , LLP is pleased to announce that Brian Henry will be joining the faculty of Fire Findings Laboratories. In January, 2007, at a yet-untitled seminar. Brian will lecture on litigation techniques in fire science litigation, specifically covering the naunces of the relationship between fire origin and cause investigations and any eventual litigation. Brian will be joining a team that has provided valuable fire science training for many years.
Congratulations and best of luck to Fire Finding!
