Solutions · Environmental lawyers
Environmental litigation needs every claim traced to a document, page and passage. Statvis searches the complete record and backs your experts with forensic chemistry.
Statvis reconstructs the site's history from every document in the record: spills, ownership, remedial work and correspondence, each dated by when it happened rather than when it was written, and cited to its source.
Ask in plain language. Statvis searches the complete record, not a top-ten sample, and answers with the exact passage boxed on the page. Where sources disagree, it shows both and says which is the primary record.
Chemical fingerprinting separates sources and background, sample by sample, to support source apportionment and responsible-party attribution.
Lab results from decades of scanned reports become structured data, each value traced to the page and cell it came from, so a number in an expert report leads straight back to the certificate.
For litigators, transaction counsel and in-house legal teams handling environmental liability.
| Use case | The need | With Statvis |
|---|---|---|
| Regulatory defence & audit response | An order or audit asks what was known, when, and what was done about it. | A dated, cited record of every investigation, letter and remedial action. |
| Due diligence & M&A | Transaction deadlines leave little time to audit decades of liability records. | Liability, key events and exceedances understood without an expensive, slow document review. |
| Multi-party proceedings | Every party works from a different subset of the record. | One consistent, cited narrative that every reviewer can check against the source. |
A citation is only useful if you can check it quickly. Statvis takes you from a 10,482-page compiled site file to the two sentences that answer the question, boxed on the page.
Statvis supports defensible decisions grounded in documents. It does not provide legal advice, and does not make final responsible-party determinations unless that work is explicitly scoped in a statement of work.
Statvis co-founder and Chief Science Officer Court Sandau, PhD, also founded Chemistry Matters, a forensic environmental chemistry consultancy. He applies compound identification and chemical fingerprinting to determine the origin and attribution of contamination in technically contested and litigious matters.
The same methods are built into Statvis, and the same scientists are available to support your matter.
How are answers cited? Is our data used for training? What happens when it's wrong? Our answers, and the checklist we give practitioners, are on the trust page.
