Pathfinder Forum provides lawyers, governments, law enforcement, and individuals with expert opinion, testimony, and education about the causation of sudden death and personal injury. Some other representative areas of consultation include medical malpractice, negligence and product liability.
The principal, Dr. John C. Butt, is a well-qualified specialist in forensic medicine and pathology, having served as Chief Medical Examiner for the Canadian provinces of Nova Scotia and Alberta, and also as president of the National Association of Medical Examiners in the United States. He brings a wealth of experience, a talent for researching cases, and a reputation for quality and compassion.
The basis of the work of Pathfinder Forum is to carefully review information about the case or problem and to follow this with sound research based upon current medical literature.
