This webinar is being offered by the National Association of Public Defense on Oct. 6, 2020.

Proper litigation that involves a fire case usually includes a fire origin and cause expert. There are standards and guidelines that the fire expert is expected to follow. This includes, but not limited to proper investigation, documentation, report writing and testimony.
