Accident Investigation and Reconstruction


  Biomechanical Analysis and Injury Causation
Injuries do occur in low speed collisions and in collisions with no visible damage Expose the errors of the opposition's "Expert Witness".

The Problem
  • Significant physical injury can result from collisions at any speed.
  • The injury is often discounted due to little or no physical damage to the vehicles.
  • The extent of injury may not be fully manifested until days or even months after the collision.
  • Accidents are not always accurately investigated.
  • "Expert Witnesses" often go unchallenged.
Common Myths
  • Myth 1: The forces in a traffic collision are like plopping into a chair.
  • Myth 2: No physical damage means your client was not injured.
  • Myth 3: The collision forces were well below an injury threshold.
  • Myth 4: People have conducted crash tests at these speeds and they were not injured.
  • Myth 5: The bumper was not damaged, so the impact speed was under 2.5 M.P.H.
  • Myth 6: Bumpers protect passengers.
The Solution
  • Professional and expert accident investigation and data collection by experienced professionals.
  • Counter the insurance companies and their technical experts with sound engineering principles.
  • Counter common myths with in depth scientific analysis and documented reports.
  • Have access to technical experts for depositions and court room testimony.
  • Don't let the opposition's technical experts intimidate your team or the jury.
