Damian Mullarkey has worked since 2014 as a Forensic Investigator and more recently as a Fire Safety Engineer. Having conducted investigations into fire and explosion incidents as well as escapes of water and oil, Damian has identified causes which have been attributable to defective or recalled products and/or incorrect installation and poor workmanship, which often require the appointment of legal counsel.
Damian has regularly worked alongside legal counsel, providing technical advice and opinion to seek a resolution to these cases. Where litigation is required to resolve these matters, Damian has been asked to act as an expert witness, providing an independent and impartial opinion to legal counsel. Damian has completed his expert witness training programme in both courtroom and cross examination skills.
