...I have extensive experience with Functional Capacity Evaluations (FCE’s) and return to work testing. ADVANTAGES: Include a meticulous review of medical records.

This has been tremendous asset in the courtroom avoiding the “hired expert” perception. While I have worked both for plaintiffs and defense, my attention to detail has allowed me to excel in helping defense attorneys find conflicting and mitigating factors.
