PLAINTIFF & DEFENSE EXPERT
Mike Panish is retained as expert witness on many code compliance cases representing both Plaintiff and Defense throughout the United States. His involvement in these types of cases has proven strict negligence on the part of the involved parties in many claims. He is precise and gives highly credible information regarding the requirements of the codes and their application to the major issues of any case.
Mike Panish is the perfect choice for your building code or ADA compliance case. He has been retained as construction expert witness and participated in dozens of code compliance issue cases during the past ten years. Code compliance is not just about whether or not a particular section of a code book is valid. Code compliance is about whether that particular section applies and is indisputably pertinent to your case. It is important to note how many other codes that are related to that section are valid, and how and when those additional and alternative codes should and could be called upon.
Mike Panish has over 35 years of hands-on experience building, remodeling, and renovating commercial buildings to meet ADA compliance and has worked in venues such as hotels, hospitals, airports, courtrooms, government buildings, shopping centers and mini malls, schools and historic buildings. Mike has a strong background in the field of medical construction in hospitals, surgical centers, and medical office complexes. He has helped design and installations that maintain the historic integrity of a building, while creating handicap accessible pathways. Mike has been called upon to design access products and perform the renovations for major ADA compliance issues for the Los Angeles County Superior Court system in California. He personally developed a proprietary swing gate that is in current usage in most of the over 450 county courtrooms. His company has provided ADA compliant and accessible structures for the department of parks and recreation in many locations in Southern California.
