My specialized practice consists of providing consultation and/or
expert
witness services in cases that involve armed and unarmed:
-
contract security guards
-
proprietary guards
-
special police
Providing…
-
consultation to both defendant and
plaintiff’s attorneys in over 250 cases of litigation
-
deposition testimony in over 25 cases
-
federal court testimony in one case
-
testimony in state court in two cases
In several cases, the issue was an armed
guard involved in a fatal shooting; in others, armed guards shot
people, while non-fatally, or otherwise injured parties (see
Recent Guard Cases)

I have been retained by attorneys in
cases of…
and retained and testified regarding…
-
the omissions of security guards
-
guard companies adherence to and following
of state regulations
-
special police and proprietary guard
actions
(Scroll up or down, or
click to go back to the top of page)
in addition to being retained…
-
to defend guard businesses and company
security guards who are accused of negligent acts or behaviors
-
in cases where the placement of an armed
guard is the question, and whether an armed guard was placed
into a business or company after evaluating the risks and needs
of the assignment
-
in many cases where the issue involves the
training and background investigations by a guard company
-
where the marketing truthfulness of the
guard enterprise when providing a proposal to a client is a
central issue
-
In many cases where the actions or
inactions of guards is a secondary issue to foreseeability,
and/or providing a deterrent to crime as one of the components
of premise security
As a consultant to corporations, I have been retained to evaluate whether guards
should be part of the overall protection of the premise. I also
have helped businesses in finding the right guard company,
establishing procedures and post orders, creating requests for
proposals that spell out what a company wants. My experience in the
training of guards to the client's focus and needs is extensive.
Challenged by attorneys in several cases
in the courts as to my credentials and ability to provide an opinion
or testimony on cases involving the action of guards and guard
companies, I have never been removed nor lost a challenge,
including in federal court. See
credentials.

security guards, click on Recent
