Our Services

Why Adjusters Choose Our FCE Services

As a licensed occupational therapist, I understand the importance of return-to-work clarity and actionable restrictions. My remote Functional Capacity Evaluations are designed to:

  • Identify objective functional limitations in the context of job demands

  • Assist in making informed decisions about modified duty or full-duty return

  • Address potential malingering or symptom exaggeration with consistency checks

  • Provide clear, timely documentation to minimize claim duration and facilitate case closure

  • Offer nationwide access without the delays of in-person scheduling

IWhy Plaintiff Attorneys Trust Our Evaluations

In personal injury and tort cases, an accurate depiction of a client’s functional loss can be pivotal. As an OT, I assess function holistically—considering not just physical ability, but also real-life occupational impact. My reports are:

  • Narrative-based and easy to integrate into demand letters and expert testimony

  • Grounded in objective, clinically sound assessment protocols

  • Delivered with attention to validity, consistency, and legal defensibility

  • Useful for establishing baseline function, long-term limitations, or vocational impact

  • Available remotely, eliminating barriers for clients with limited mobility or access

AWhy Disability Evaluators Choose an OT-Led FCE

Occupational therapists bring a unique lens to disability determination—we analyze how physical, cognitive, and environmental factors intersect with real-world occupational performance. My remote FCEs:

  • Offer functional insight aligned with job descriptions and policy definitions

  • Include evidence-based tools to assess capacity, consistency, and limitations

  • Support determinations around Total Disability, Residual Functional Capacity, and own vs. any occupation

  • Meet insurer and ERISA standards for documentation

  • Are conducted via secure, HIPAA-compliant platforms, ensuring broad reach

Services

We deliver fully remote FCEs via secure telehealth platforms, utilizing standardized assessment protocols and evidence-based methodologies. Each evaluation includes:

  • Thorough review of medical records and case history

  • Functional and performance-based testing adapted for remote administration

  • Validity and consistency measures throughout the assessment

  • Analysis of work-related tolerances and limitations

  • A comprehensive, narrative-style report suitable for legal proceedings

As a licensed occupational therapist with a focus on functional performance in real-world contexts, I specialize in providing Remote Functional Capacity Evaluations (FCEs) that align with the needs of legal and insurance professionals.

My background includes extensive experience in injury rehabilitation, work capacity analysis, and return-to-work planning. I understand not only the physical mechanics of movement, but also the interplay between functional limitations, environmental demands, and job-specific expectations—insights critical to accurate, legally-defensible FCE reporting.

Whether you're managing a workers’ compensation case or seeking clarity on functional restrictions in a personal injury matter, my approach ensures that each evaluation is clinically sound, objectively reported, and contextually relevant.
