Normally, I can provide consulting services from my office, and travel is not required.
Little is gained by my visiting the chiller for inspection since my opinions are, almost
entirely, based upon chemical and/or microscopic metallurgical analyses.
Should travel be required, all of my expenses are to be paid by the client.

* My General Consulting Rate and Expert Legal Testimony fees can exceed the
$300/hr minimum rate depending upon the nature of the project involved.
