Examples of experts in a commercial truck accident case:
Accident Reconstruction Experts
An accident reconstruction expert may be critical in certain tractor trailer accident cases where there is a dispute as to how the accident happened. They analyze physical evidence, skid marks, vehicle damage, data from the truck’s black box and more to recreate the crash and determine whether the truck was speeding, the driver was distracted or failed to take evasive action.
Trucking Industry and Safety Experts
A trucking industry and safety expert can give invaluable evidence into whether a trucking company cut corners on safety. They analyze the driver’s logbook, qualifications, and company safety policies. They can help identify violations that contributed to the crash.
Mechanical and Maintenance Experts
A mechanical expert can help trace the cause of an accident to improper maintenance by inspecting for worn tires, defective brakes, or steering problems. Trucking companies regularly use outside maintenance companies for both maintenance and roadworthiness. If improper maintenance can be established, it brings another potential defendant and their insurance coverage into the case.
Medical Experts
These are the most important experts in a commercial truck accident case. Treating physicians can explain the severity of injuries, long-term treatment needed, and the affect on daily life. We regularly engage orthopedic surgeons, neurologists, and pain management specialists to ensure our clients injuries are fully documented and explained.
Economic and Vocational Experts
Economists and vocational experts provide projections of lost wages, reduced earning capacity, and future medical costs.
