Dan Whittaker is a Council-certified Indoor Environmental Consultant (CIEC) with over 17 years of field experience investigating complex indoor environmental conditions across residential, commercial, and institutional properties. As the owner and senior consultant of Environmental Solutions Group (ESG), Dan has overseen thousands of site assessments involving water damage, microbial growth, air quality concerns, and building-related illness claims. His investigative approach is grounded in best practices from nationally recognized standards (e.g., IICRC S520, LEED, and USGBC guidelines), and his reports are crafted with a clear, scientific methodology that stands up to legal scrutiny.
Dan has provided expert testimony in multiple legal settings—including depositions, arbitration, and trial—in cases involving construction defects, water intrusion, and mold-related health claims. He is frequently retained for both plaintiff and defense cases and is known for his ability to clearly explain technical findings to non-expert audiences, including juries and legal professionals. His professional expertise is supplemented by his experience as a certified instructor with the North Carolina Licensing Board for General Contractors, and as a frequent presenter at national industry conferences including the IAQA National Convention.
With a foundation in both environmental consulting and professional photojournalism, Dan is also uniquely equipped to document site conditions through high-resolution, court-ready photographic evidence. His field documentation, paired with calibrated, industry-standard instrumentation, ensures that his findings are both technically accurate and visually verifiable. Dan remains one of the few highly credentialed indoor environmental experts offering expert witness services in the state of North Carolina.
