Crash Animations
We bridge the gap between technical data and courtroom clarity. With experience spanning thousands of motor vehicle collisions, we craft precise, expert-vetted visualizations that translate complex opinions into easy to understand visuals.

Delivery Driver's View Blocked by Bus
As a delivery vehicle approached a T-intersection, a car pulled out from behind a bus. The views of both drivers are illustrated. |
PIckup Hits Fuel Truck
A young driver lost control of a pickup truck and struck a fuel truck's front wheel. Both vehicles ran off the road and both drivers were killed. This animation demonstrates how the pickup ran into the fuel tank's wheel, based on the physical evidence. |
Snow Piled on Debris in Work Zone
Several feet of snow accumulated on top of a demolished sidewalk. The next day, a pickup truck driver noticed an SUV stopped at the intersection. About three seconds before he reached the T, the SUV driver pulled out in front him. He swerved, but still hit the SUV. |
Trucking Animations
Commercial vehicle litigation requires a deep understanding of industry-specific issues like the driver's visibility and response, mirror blind spots, and "black box" data. We have extensive experience working with experts to demonstrate their analysis of DriveCam footage, driver response and loading errors.
Truck Wreck on Bridge
The truck slid on the wet road and impacted the barrier wall, snapping the four bolts that held the cab to the frame. The cab disconnected and fell off bridge, landing in river. The driver was unable to escape and was drowned. |

Product Liability Animations
A single poorly designed part can cause catastrophic damage when it fails. We collaborate with technical experts to explain complex product mechanics to jurors and demonstrate how specific modifications could have prevented the damage.
UTV Rollover and Injury Mechanism
We’ve worked on multiple UTV rollover projects to demonstrate vehicle dynamics, occupant kinematics and the mechanism of injury. Additional illustrations depict safety nets that would have protected occupants during these common and foreseeable events. |
Product Design: Seat Belt Buckle
The seat belt buckle of a front end loader being used near a sand blasting area failed and the operator was injured. Video explains proper operation and failure mechanism. |
Product Design: Door Latch Failure
A small car was bumped by a delivery truck, causing the vehicle to rollover. When the door latch opened, the driver was ejected. |
Construction & Industrial Animations
We've created animations and visuals to illustrate a wide variety of industrial, construction and structural accidents. Animations can show the overall layout of a plant, demonstrate a failure mechanism or illustrate an injury. Our computer models can be used with a 3d printer to create a physical scale model for experts and attorneys to reference as needed during trial testimony.
Refigerated Cooler Ceiling Collapse
During renovation of a refrigerated warehouse, one worker was killed and two others received catastrophic injuries when a ceiling/floor panel collapsed and they fell 16 feet onto a concrete floor. |
Roof Failure on Concrete Silo
Modifications to a concrete silo weakened the structure of the roof and increased the load it had to bear. The roof collapsed while a worker was on it. |
Petroleum Plant Explosion
A pressure vessel at a petroleum plant exploded. The support structures that the defendant fabricated and installed were not related to the explosion. Animation was used in opening arguments. A 3d scale model was also created from the file and used throughout the proceedings. |
