CEO of Lamberth Consulting, Dr. Lamberth has been working as a social psychologist for over 30 years, and has been consulting for over 20 years. His area of consulting expertise lies in statistics, surveying methodology, and social psychology. He has been qualified as an expert in these areas in State Courts in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Iowa and Virginia and in Federal Courts in New Jersey, Connecticut and Virginia.

In 1993 Dr. Lamberth developed the first methodology used in the country to determine whether racial profiling was occurring. In New Jersey v. Soto, the Court relied upon his research methodology and statistical analysis in determining whether racial profiling occurred on the New Jersey Turnpike. In 1999, the Attorney General of New Jersey agreed that the New Jersey State Police were practicing racial profiling (Interim Report of the State Police Review Team Regarding Allegations of Racial Profiling @ www.state.nj.us/lps/intm_419.pdf ). Since that time he has intensified his work in the area of racial profiling, assisting in litigation, and assisting police departments who are interested in voluntarily determining whether racial profiling is occurring in their jurisdictions.

Dr. Lamberth has designed and developed benchmark studies in Wilkens v. Maryland State Police, New Jersey v. Maiolino, Morka v. New Jersey State Police, and Arizona v. Faulk et al.
