Accident Reconstruction Expert Witness

Job Description :

We are seeking an experienced Accident Reconstruction Expert Witness to join our growing team of forensic engineering professionals. The ideal candidate will have a strong foundation in engineering — with hands-on experience analyzing vehicle collisions, crash dynamics, roadway conditions, and contributing factors — and a proven ability to deliver clear, compelling expert analysis and testimony in legal cases. This is a unique opportunity for an engineer passionate about applying their technical expertise to support the legal process and uncover the truth behind complex accidents.

Key Responsibilities :

Conduct thorough investigations and forensic analyses of motor vehicle accidents, including crash dynamics, impact forces, vehicle kinematics, roadway conditions, and contributing human, mechanical, and environmental factors.

Prepare detailed written reports and expert opinions supported by engineering principles, data modeling, and physical evidence.

Provide expert witness testimony during depositions, mediations, and trials — translating complex technical findings into clear, understandable explanations for attorneys, juries, and other non-technical audiences.

Collaborate closely with legal teams to develop case strategies, identify key issues, and support litigation efforts with precise technical expertise.

Perform on-site inspections, evidence collection, and measurements to accurately reconstruct accident events.

Stay current on industry standards, crash investigation methodologies, and relevant regulations and technologies in vehicle dynamics and roadway safety.

Requirements

Qualifications :

Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Transportation Engineering, or a related discipline (Master’s degree preferred).

Proven experience in accident reconstruction, collision analysis, or forensic engineering.

Strong understanding of vehicle dynamics, occupant kinematics, roadway design, and safety standards.

Previous experience serving as an expert witness or testifying in legal proceedings is highly desirable.

Exceptional analytical and problem-solving skills with meticulous attention to detail.

Outstanding communication and presentation abilities, with the capability to explain complex concepts clearly to diverse audiences.

Professional Engineering (PE) license and / or ACTAR certification is preferred.

Benefits

What We Offer :

Competitive compensation and flexible working arrangements.

Comprehensive case support — including research assistance, report editing, and marketing.

Professional development opportunities such as deposition coaching and testimony training.

A collaborative, dynamic environment where your expertise is valued and your impact is tangible.

If you are an engineer with a passion for forensic analysis and helping uncover the facts behind accidents, we want to hear from you. Please submit your CV and any supporting materials highlighting your accident reconstruction expertise.
