Slifka has investigated hundreds of fires during his fire protection career and has been qualified as an expert witness in both deposition and at trial in U.S. Federal and State Courts. He was recently instrumental in winning two high-profile lawsuits concerning fire and life safety:

Slifka represented the defendants in a case involving a $ 4,000,000 generator building fire at the St. Louis Airport. His expertise was vital in finding the defendants not liable for any damages.
Working for the Plaintiff on a carbon monoxide poisoning case, Slifka’s testimony was crucial in the awarding of a $ 3,000,000 judgment plus a $ 25,500,000 punitive damages judgment, the largest civil judgment in Wyoming history.

An Expert on the Life Safety Code, Slifka was one of the developers of the Fire Safety Evaluation System (FSES) for Health Care facilities (now known as NFPA 101 A).
