In the past eight years, 84% of cases consulted or instructed upon ultimately circled back to risk assessments that were either ineffective or inadequate due to insufficient risk mitigation measures as a contributing factor.

Testimonials

Foreseeable delivers unparalleled expert insight, bringing clarity and credibility to complex cases.

I would just like to take this opportunity of thanking you for your help and support and your able analysis of the technical aspects. It was also very useful and assisted counsel in understanding the causes of the incident. We will certainly revert to you if we have a similar case in the future.

Robert Leith, Solicitor Advocate | Clyde & Co (Scotland) LLP

We instructed Steve as the Pursuers’ expert in a recent diving fatality case. He displayed a very sound understanding of the relevant law teamed with a wealth of hands-on experience in the offshore industry. He was instrumental in the ultimate success of a complicated case.

Lindsay Davidson, Partner - Lefevres Law

Steve has been very helpful and responded professionally to all our requests for comment and response to the developments of the case. (especially since it was a somewhat unusual case from a legal prospective!) His expert knowledge of the diving industry, practicalities, technicalities and reality of diving operations would, in my opinion, be of great assistance to any case, be it pursuer or defender instructed.

John Symon, Director - Quantum Claims

I had the pleasure of working with Steve in 2017 and again 2018, we were both at different companies and in different regions yet the job at hand was similar. Steve is a consummate Professional, extremely knowledgeable and excellent communicator. A few words that best describe Steve are, venerable, savvy, and a person of high integrity. I would consider Steve an expert in the subject of HSE, IMCA, IOGP, and diving best practices the world over, and he would be my first call if an expert witness was needed for any Subsea testimony

Patrick Jeffries | Diving Operations Manager, Oceaneering International Inc. USA

Steve brings deep experience in subsea construction and his attention to detail is 2nd to none. He has expert leadership offshore with a pragmatic and collaborative approach. The BP Devenick project on and offshore construction phases went safely and smoothly largely due to his involvement.

Alan McKenzie, BP Subsea Construction Lead - Devenick Project

We worked on a pioneering greenfield project in Eastern India, Steve always operates to an extremely high standard. He set high safety expectations and supported the project with his wealth of knowledge and experience. He is a highly motivated professional in the offshore oil and gas industry. I also had the pleasure of bumping into him some years later when he was delivering a course in Singapore. Steve enhanced the course delivery with his wealth of offshore experience, making the course interesting and highly educational.
