Many experts covet and hoard what they regard as their own intellectual property, but not this author.  Dr. Shahnasarian “puts it out there” only after verifying his own knowledge and dissemination.  This is very much in the interest of advancing our professions.

I find the life care planning section spot on. The inclusion of the Standards of Practice for Life Care Planners as a foundation (International Association of Rehabilitation Professionals, 2015), as well as numerous case examples of varying complexity and instruction on common litigation pitfalls, will certainly assist aspiring experts with providing valuable litigation-related services.
