Whether you are an advocacy group, a government entity, a business, or a sovereign nation, Uncommon Approach can provide you with the assistance you need in the sometimes difficult arena of workers' compensation.

Let us help you with a wide range of problem solving services related to the legal aspects of workers' compensation: including system design, analysis, redesign and implementation, expert witnessing for litigation and legislative matters, legislative and regulatory analysis and drafting, stakeholder and regulator relations and presentation of complex issues to the public.

Uncommon Approach approaches every project with three guiding principles:

1. The concerns and objectives of the client control the outcome. There are no canned answers and no agendas are in play, other than yours. We will work together to define the parameters of the project and its objectives, and avoid wasting time and energy on analysis and solutions that are not practical for your circumstances.
2. Uncommon Approach is dedicated to the development of workers' compensation solutions that increase efficiency without creation of unnecessary regulatory costs or burdens. Albert Einstein said, "Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more complex and more violent. It takes a touch of genius - and a lot of courage - to move in the opposite direction."
3. Uncommon Approach understands that what works in one mixture of cultural, demographic and economic factors may not work in a different environment. Stakeholder involvement is an invaluable resource for effective change.

I provide comprehensive assistance for governments, tribal sovereigns, businesses and advocacy groups. My extensive experience as General Counsel for a state workers' compensation program and experience participating in the evaluation and design or re-design of five separate workers' compensation systems gives me a unique perspective in the tailoring of workers' compensation systems to the needs of specific demographic and social environments.

My years as Editor of the Journal of the International Association of Industrial Accident Boards and Commissions (IAIABC), together with my extensive regulatory and professional network and international academic contacts uniquely give me access to the newest, most cutting edge ideas and research to apply to your desired outcome.

Innovative ideas are just that, until they are implemented. Evaluation and redesign services are complimented by a complete array of complementary services: I have over 15 years experience in rulemaking, statutory language development and education services to assist in the implementation your improved program.
