We believe that any litigation involving life-altering injuries like TBI requires evidence of the highest caliber in order to provide justice. We offer expert witness testimony along with objective, quantifiable, and repeatable data to TBI cases that have historically relied on evidence that is qualitative, subjective, and often speculative. Through two decades of in-depth human research on the neurophysiological "wiring" of eye movements, we have developed a novel, patented technology capable of supporting or refuting the presence or history of TBI with very high accuracy. Utilizing eye movement data collected from thousands of Veterans at the VA hospitals, we are able to conclusively support or refute a diagnosis of TBI through eye movement analysis. Further, these head injuries can be stratified from normal (i.e. healthy), to concussions, mild TBI, through moderate and severe TBI. Critically, this test cannot be faked in any way, which often provides a recording of crystal clea...
