Pipeline Safety Technical Experts

I served 23 in the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration and predecessor Office of Pipeline Safety – serving 5 yrs. as director and another 5 yrs. as deputy (includes Director and Deputy Associate Administrator for Pipeline Safety), as well as Pipeline Inspector and Southern Region Chief.

After retiring from federal service, I have served almost 20 yrs. as domestic and international gas and oil pipeline safety consultant and expert witness regarding federal, state, and industry standards. I have provided these services for over 125 clients and been an expert witness for plaintiffs and defendants with over 30 depositions/court testimony.

I have represented many pipeline companies and pipeline contractors in litigation. I cannot represent any company or individual that is against any of these pipeline companies or pipeline contractors in litigation.
