My name is Elliot D. Lasson. I am an Organizational Psychologist with 30+ years spanning corporate, public sector, consulting, higher education, and nonprofit environments. I bring real-world context that judges and juries understand. I bring a dual perspective advantage —not just academic theory. I have a rare credential combination. I am among the few Licensed Psychologists in the U.S. holding both Board Certification in Organizational and Business Consulting Psychology (ABPP) and senior-level HR certifications (SHRM-SCP, HRCI), thus bridging the gap between psychological science and business practice.

I have performed document review, delivered expert reports, provided strategic consultation, and testified at deposition and at trial.
