Court Testimony Experience
A biomechanical engineer and expert witness with 17 years of experience, this professional specializes in accident reconstruction, injury potential and causation, human factors, failure analysis, and medical device engineering. More than 10 years of expert witness experience includes consultations, deposition testimony, and courtroom testimony, and his professional record reflects more than 100 instances of testimony. Forensic assignments encompass automobiles, motorcycles, pedestrians, public transportation, amusement rides, walking surfaces, railroad and industrial equipment, premises-related incidents, and product liability matters.
Educational attainment includes a Bachelor of Science in Bioengineering and a Master of Engineering in Bioengineering, with academic emphasis in electrical engineering, biomechanics, and pre-medicine. He is a licensed Professional Engineer in mechanical and biomedical engineering and a Senior Member of the National Academy of Forensic Engineers. Additional professional affiliations include the Society of Automotive Engineers, National Society of Professional Engineers, and Texas Society of Professional Engineers.
Biomechanical analysis includes occupant dynamics, injury causation, brain injury, spinal biomechanics, seatbelt and airbag interaction, visibility, perception and reaction, ergonomics, and trauma causation. Accident reconstruction work includes rollovers, low-speed collisions, multiple-impact events, pedestrian incidents, EDR data, photogrammetry, damage consistency, order-of-impact analysis, and driver determination. He also uses medical records, photographs, and autopsy findings as injury-based evidence when evaluating the relationship between accident mechanics and reported injuries.
Beyond collision analysis, his biomedical engineering background includes orthopedic biomechanics, implantable and neuromodulation devices, surgical tools, human tissue testing, clinical trials, human factors engineering, and medical device regulatory processes. Professional responsibilities have included evaluating vehicle collisions, industrial and railroad incidents, amusement ride accidents, product failures, premises incidents, and medical device malfunctions, as well as reviewing medical device study protocols for scientific merit and safety. He has also contributed to patent applications involving implantable therapy technology. This combined experience in biomechanics, forensic engineering, medical devices, and human factors supports analysis of injury mechanisms, accident dynamics, product failures, and device performance in disputed matters.
