Statement of Policy

My goal is to provide you with a thorough

and accurate account of how the accident

happened. I will make every effort to

find the evidence that will support

your case. I realize that when you hire me,

you are primarily interested in the

results that best support you and/or your

client’s version. However, if the

evidence does not support this view,

I will rely on the evidence for

my conclusion. It is my

practice to provide you

with all the information

that supports your case,

as well as any that

may be detrimental.
