Life Care Planning and Vocational Expert
At our firm, Kacy Turner serves as the cornerstone of our life care planning and vocational consulting services. With more than 25 years of experience in rehabilitation and forensic vocational analysis, Kacy brings a depth of clinical knowledge, professional credibility, and practical insight that law firms rely on when navigating complex personal injury and disability matters.
Kacy is a Certified Life Care Planner, Certified Rehabilitation Counselor, and Certified Vocational Evaluator who has been qualified as an expert in both state and federal courts. She provides testimony nationwide and has worked on cases across Texas, multiple other states, and internationally. From our office in Texas, we serve attorneys throughout Texas and beyond, offering both in-person and remote services to ensure accessibility and responsiveness regardless of location.
Our work is grounded in objective, evidence-based methodologies. Kacy’s role is not to advocate for a particular outcome, but to deliver clear, defensible opinions that assist triers of fact in understanding vocational capacity, future care needs, and economic implications. We work with both plaintiff and defense counsel and maintain independence and professional neutrality in every engagement.
Kacy’s background spans clinical rehabilitation, case management, vocational evaluation, and forensic consulting, allowing us to bridge medical, vocational, and functional information into well-supported analyses. She routinely evaluates pre-injury and post-injury employability, earning capacity, and reasonable accommodations under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Her work includes vocational testing, transferable skills analysis, labor market research, job analysis, and the development of comprehensive life care plans tailored to the specific facts of each case.
As a boutique firm, we pride ourselves on providing personalized attention, prompt response times, and direct access to the expert working on your matter. Law firms work directly with Kacy throughout the engagement, from initial case review through report preparation and testimony. This hands-on approach ensures consistency, efficiency, and clarity at every stage of the litigation process.
In addition to her consulting work, Kacy is a recognized leader within the rehabilitation and life care planning community. She has held multiple leadership roles with the International Association of Rehabilitation Professionals (IARP), including service as President and Board Member of the Texas chapter, and currently serves as a Forensic Board Member-at-Large. She is a frequent presenter and published author on life care planning, vocational rehabilitation, and economic damages in litigation, further reinforcing the credibility and reliability of our opinions.
Whether a matter requires a comprehensive life care plan, vocational assessment, cost analysis, or case management support, we approach every assignment with the same commitment to professionalism, objectivity, and individualized service. Our goal is to provide law firms with clear, well-reasoned expert analysis they can trust—delivered efficiently and supported by decades of experience.
