Why Hire A Private
Detective To Perform
An Accident Reconstruction?
|
Do
you represent a client who is fighting with an auto insurance
company? Are you trying to determine exactly which driver was
responsible for causing an accident? If so, it is important to do more
than just listen to eyewitness reports in order to perform an accident
reconstruction: it's important to hire a private detective to
investigate the reports and the accident to determine what really
happened.
Accident reconstruction is a process by which an accident is
researched. A private investigator will review the stories from
witnesses who watched the accident take place as well as those who were
in one or more of the vehicles involved. In addition, the scene of the
accident will be visited so that the information can be put into
perspective.
During the
process of researching an accident reconstruction, the
private investigator and his team will also review videotaped evidence
if it's available and take photos and measurements of skid marks on the
pavement both those indicating braking and sliding to the side. Once
all of the information has been collected and evaluated, the
reconstruction of the accident can begin if it is found to be necessary.
Accident
reconstruction may not be necessary in the case of one car
being rear-ended by another, but can make all the difference if the
accident involves failed seatbelts or rolled vehicles. In the cases
where accident reconstruction is necessary, it can be used to determine
the rate of speed at which the involved cars were moving. It can also
be used to consider the conditions of the road, the angle of impact and
more all of which can contribute to which driver was responsible for
the accident.
Because
accident reconstruction can provide visual details of the scene
rather than just testimony, it can prove to be a particularly valuable
resource when you are asked to prove a case for your client. However,
that doesn't mean that you should conduct the accident reconstruction
on your own.
A private investigator can take
the information that you have about the
accident, access additional information at the scene and make the time
to talk with witnesses while the accident is still fresh in their
minds. Private investigators who are skilled at accident reconstruction
are able to do the research, manage the information and work with
software and engineers to accurately recreate the accident and what led
up to it.
Whether your work involves representing someone who was in an accident
or a member of their family or your work involves determining whether
or not the individual has a case, accident reconstruction is a tool
that you can use to prove your case.
You can be sure that the insurance companies will take advantage of
accident reconstruction to determine whose responsibility the accident
was; why give them an unfair advantage? Hire a private investigator so
that you can be sure of what really happened so that you too can take
advantage of accident reconstruction, determine responsibility for an
accident and get your clients the benefits that they deserve.
