I enjoyed the thorough review of medical records, guidelines, and relevant literature to ascertain whether the actions taken by the healthcare provider involved were in line with accepted medical standards. My expertise as an internal medicine expert witness was vital to this case. I bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to bear on the medical aspects of the matter at hand, and my testimony will provide the court with a well informed and impartial analysis of the medical issues involved. I have reviewed the SEAK Expert Witness Training course over the past 12 months.

Winfield, West Virginia
Veterinarian, Animals - Expert witness in Equine abuse and neglect, in addition to small animal welfare. I have spent 30 years testifying in court against animal (equine) abuse and neglect. I have written multiple articles identifying the neglected horse and securing methods to prosecute those involved with equine abuse.
...Often, hoarding cases encompass more than one animal species and it is imperative that the expert witness is familiar with species challenges and differences to ensure successful prosecution. For the past 15 years, many of my animal neglect cases reflect hoarding scenarios which can be a welfare challenge due to the emotional consequences and balances separating human addiction with animal welfare. I volunteer my time training attorneys, law enforcement, prosecutors, and shelter employees on identifying animal abuse and neglect and successfully prosecuting these cases. I have never lost a welfare case in court.
