Additional Information

I have over 20 years of experience with forensic accounting, including personal injury, wrongful death, business interruption, and patent infringement cases. Clients have included civil plaintiff and defense attorneys, insurance companies, and criminal prosecution and defense attorneys. In addition to my training and substantial experience as a CPA, my background in communications allows me to effectively connect with clients, juries, and arbitrators, both in person and through my reports. I believe that clear, direct language is more understandable to the triers of fact -- and ultimately more convincing.
