GAS EXPERTS

​

​

NatGas CONSULTING only hires true "hands-on" experts in the industry they will be providing opinions on a professional level. We have experts from a full range of natural gas industry functions who can provide very specialized and detailed consulting and testimony on functions these folks have worked at for decades. These NatGas Consultants ARE​​ the experts in the industry. True experts, we believe you will not match in experience, which will be quite clear to the responsible party(s) & our clients.  
​
Every expert provided by NatGas Consulting will have no less than decades of experience at their specialized trade. With NatGas Consultants you get unparalleled access to not only trained & educated experts but also (which I see as most critical) extensive experience working in the role/capacity they are expected to testify to.

​

We have seen a surprising level of limited experience in the litigation field with regard to natural gas, propane, and Carbon Monoxide which each of our field experts unanimously agree to be the case when entering the legal side of becoming an expert through the transition from an industry expert to a legal expert with NatGas Consulting.

 

We are quite proud of our case history on several different levels as we have never lost a gas explosion case, which our clients can attest to. NatGas Consulting has become the premier natural gas experts in the industry!
