Professional Fees

Professional Fee Schedules are provided upon request.

Due to the disingenuous actions of a few in their obligations, the following is necessary:

1. Advance retainer funds are mandatory for all work, travel, deposition or trial testimony, and expenses.

2. Government work requires a purchase order, letter of authorization, or contract.

3. Court appointed cases require a copy of the court order authorizing the work.

I will promplty return unused retainer funds; past case references can be provided for you to verify.

Ballistics Evidence

The lack of evidence can be as important as the abundance of evidence in proving or disproving a set of facts or version of events.

Scientific Method

Use of generally accepted protocols and standards able to withstand a Daubert Challenge.

Quality Results

Nothing will be overlooked, no stone will be left unturned.
