Impact Injury Analysis specializes in answering the questions of what were the events that led up to an accident causing an injury or death, and if and how it could have been avoided. The environment in which the injury occurred varies, but the common element of our work is the person. We research roadway injuries caused by trucks, at night, striking pedestrians. We investigate industrial accidents that occur in factories and construction accidents caused by heavy equipment. Children and the elderly, at work, at school, or at home have all been the focus of our investigations in the past.
Our analysis may include the integration of information from the review of medical and surgical records, equipment and vehicle specifications, documents in evidence, inspection of the accident site, interviews, on-site testing, measurements, calculations and advanced analysis of photographs and video recordings.
Municipalities, insurance carriers, the injured, and attorneys across the country have turned to us to analyze complex accidents that occurred on barges and airports, involving buses, trains, scaffolds and earth moving equipment. Because of our higher education, training, knowledge and years of experience, we have the ability to provide an advanced level of investigation and technical analysis.
