What We Do
Life Care Planning and Vocational Rehabilitation
A Life Care Plan is a tool used to establish an accurate profile of long-term needs, recommendations, and associated costs for individuals who have experienced life altering injuries or who need long term care/treatment for the duration of their lives.
Vocational Reports assess pre and post-injury loss of earnings capacity secondary to the event in question, and Forensic Economic Analysis provides details and valuation for damages in present value dollar.
Our Life Care Planners/Rehabilitation Counselors speak with both the patient, and with treating doctors when developing plans, ensuring that every plan is unique and tailored to the specific needs of the client.
