How We Work
Your Assessment Journey
From first contact to expert testimony, each engagement follows a structured, transparent process designed to support counsel and clients at every stage.

Assess the legal issues, procedural timelines, and availability to determine whether the matter is appropriate for referral. Where helpful, a brief preliminary discussion with counsel may be recommended.

The evaluation may include structured interviews, vocational testing, transferable skills analysis, and labour market research using accepted methodologies.
5 - Report Preparation
An objective report is prepared addressing the specific referral questions, summarizing findings, and presenting professional opinions.
