        November Commentary: Findings in Expert Consultations of Death

                                This commentary comes from many conversations we have with families in discussing our
                                process in reviewing the death of their loved one. Most often their concerns are founded -
                                such as being suspicious due to some unusual circumstances in how the body was when
                                found. However, their reasoning for these suspicions are actually a digression from facts and
                                evidence - perhaps the same as some juries have when thinking of the fading CSI effect from
                                the genre of television and movies. Our goal, and passion, is to sort through everything from
                                the official records, reports, and photographs to the questions the family has - and bring both
                                answers and closure, no matter the findings or expectations. The same holds true of all of our
                                legal investigations and expert consultations, not just death - but serious bodily injury, and
                                also in civil, criminal and even probate litigation.
