Services
What We Offer
Paul Parker Consulting offers a comprehensive range of services for families, attorneys, law
enforcement agencies, government bodies, health care organizations, and media professionals who need
authoritative insight into medicolegal death investigation.
death investigation review
Comprehensive review of any medicolegal death investigation completed by a Medical Examiner/Coroner (ME/C) Office. Where a review identifies deficiencies or unanswered questions, Paul can conduct a subsequent independent medicolegal investigation to ensure the record is complete and accurate.
in-custody and law enforcement-involved death investigations
Independent case review and/or investigation of in-custody and law enforcement-involved deaths. These cases carry unique complexity and require an investigator with direct experience in both law enforcement and medicolegal systems — experience Paul brings to every engagement.
independent investigations
When a death falls outside the jurisdiction of a Medical Examiner/Coroner Office — or when an independent perspective is needed — Paul conducts thorough, impartial medicolegal investigations.
death certificate review
Review of death certificates for accuracy, completeness, and consistency with available medical and investigative records. This service is frequently retained by families, attorneys, and insurance professionals when the certified cause or manner of death is in question.
