Areas of Practice
Regulatory Compliance
Reviewing gaps in regulatory compliance can result in significant savings when they are proactively addressed and remediated. Inadequate SOPs (e.g., integrity management, employee training, safety culture, and safety management systems) are often involved when regulatory penalties are issued.
Audits & Investigations
State and Federal audits and accident/incident investigations can be quite stressful, and potentially very costly. Having competent technical expertise at your side during that time is a pre-requisite to best understand and navigate the delicate process.
Expert Testimony
Leveraging decades of investigation expertise can help clients better understand the technical aspect of a case. Real-life testifying experience is priceless in understanding and navigating the process. Both are bedrocks of any successful litigation.
