Coffee has never been hotter. 

Increasing brew temps aside, the consumption of coffee and hot beverages is continuing to grow at record paces. And hot beverage litigation is following suit.

We apply nearly four decades of experience in the coffee and tea industry to help businesses protect their customers, their brand, and their bottom line by preventing hot beverage spills and defending them should a spill burn happen.

As a spill burn expert witness, we serve foodservice establishments, airlines, transportation corporations, cup manufacturers, and makers of commercial and home brewing equipment defending themselves in lawsuits related to hot beverage spills. We have successfully provided consultation and hot beverage expert witness testimony that has fortified the defense for nearly 60 cases related to the temperature of the beverage at the time of brewing or spill, drive-thru spills, and the functioning of commercial brewing equipment.

Our team of specialized legal consultants also passionately works to prevent spill burns from happening. We provide comprehensive education for all businesses and brands that serve coffee, tea, and other hot beverages through books, seminars, training posters that clearly outline best practices for hot beverage safety, and a caution label to protect consumers.

Why should you listen to us? We know coffee, and we know best handling practices. 

Founder Dan Cox is a specialty coffee insider who brings four decades of practical experience in management, roasting, cupping, product development, and marketing. He’s literally written the book (actually, two of them) on hot beverage spill and burn lawsuit prevention.

Coffee burn litigation shows no sign of cooling off. We can help you out.
