Senior-level safety and environmental judgment, without the full-time hire.
Thirty years of cross-industry field experience means knowing the difference between what's actually dangerous and what just looks bad on paper — between a citation risk and a real exposure. That's the judgment you're hiring. Available as a fractional retainer or on a project basis, without the overhead of a full-time position.
Compliance work that holds up under scrutiny — not just an audit checklist.
Engagements span any setting where exposure, process, and regulation intersect. Senior-level judgment here means recognizing which gaps actually create liability and which are paper problems — and knowing what to do about both before an inspector or an attorney finds them first.

Expert witness services for workplace injury, fatality, and exposure matters.
Available to plaintiff and defense counsel. Case review, written expert reports, deposition testimony, and trial testimony — grounded in thirty years of cross-industry field experience and the CSP and CIH credentials that carry weight in court.
Four steps. No shortcuts.
The same sequence applies whether the engagement is a fractional retainer or a single case review.
Scope the exposure
A direct conversation about what's actually at risk — operationally, regulatorily, or legally — before any work begins.
Review the record
Site conditions, documentation, prior incidents, and existing programs are examined against the applicable standard.
Form a defensible position
Findings are documented to a standard that holds up under internal review, regulatory scrutiny, or cross-examination.
Deliver it plainly
A written report or recommendation stated in terms a non-specialist — a plant manager, an attorney, a jury — can act on.
Before the first call.
The questions that usually come up before an engagement begins.
