Expert opinion and safety and ergonomics consultancy during COVID-19
During this extraordinary time, the Dohrmann Consulting team are still well resourced to help you with your safety and ergonomics requirements, including expert opinions for personal injury matters. The safety of our staff and clients are paramount and we have taken all appropriate measures to ensure we can continue to safely meet your needs, whilst adhering to Health Authority’s guidelines.
“Covid-normal” business as usual
Our full team of experts and support staff are working remotely, but it otherwise remains business as usual for Dohrmann Consulting. Please contact us in the usual way if you need any assistance.

| Electronic documents | Virtual meetings, interviews and workshops |
| Our strong preference remains that we receive all client briefing materials and payments electronically. If you need assistance in this regard, please call our office – we will be pleased to guide you through the relevant process. | We have access to a variety of video conferencing and collaboration tools and can safely meet with you or your clients in the comfort of your/their home. |
 |  |
| In-house workshop facilities | Expert opinions without a view |
| We can inspect and examine relevant products or items in our excellent workshop facilities in lieu of a view. We can measure forces, torques, sample surface friction, clearances and the like. You may send us anything (limited to what two people can lift) and we will scrutinise whatever is thought to be important. Examples might be a bicycle, a wheelchair, power tools, workshop equipment or furniture. | Not every matter requires a view to support an opinion. Good quality briefing material, well structured interviews, and our own thorough research can often produce a robust report to help with claim management, negotiations and mediation. Clear photos, videos and/or diagrams are inevitably very helpful. It remains wise, however, to plan for a view before any court attendance to ensure evidentiary integrity. |

| Obligation-free consultation and preliminary expert advice | Flexible payments terms |
| As always, we offer obligation-free preliminary expert opinions and consultations for your safety and ergonomics requirements. Preliminary expert advice for personal injury matters will help you identify strengths and weaknesses in your case before any later investment in a “full” report. We only need the essential case information from you to assist. Simply call or email us. | We understand that many of our clients may be facing challenging circumstances. We’ll work with you to ensure the best possible payment arrangement for each individual case. Please do not hesitate to talk with us regarding our flexible payment terms. |
