This is a remote position. Accident Reconstruction Expert Witness Job Description: We are seeking an experienced Accident Reconstruction Expert Witness to join our growing team of expert witnesses. 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 factors.
• Perform on‑site inspections, evidence collection, and measurements to accurately reconstruct accidents.
• Prepare detailed written reports and expert opinions supported by engineering principles, data modeling, and physical evidence.
• Provide expert witness testimony during depositions and trials — translating complex technical findings into clear, understandable opinions suitable 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.
• Stay current on industry standards, crash investigation methodologies, and relevant regulations and technologies in vehicle dynamics and roadway safety.

Requirements Qualifications:

• At least 15 years of experience in Accident Reconstruction.
• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Biomechanical Engineering or a related discipline is strongly preferred.
• Professional Engineering (PE) license and/or ACTAR certification is strongly preferred.
• Proven experience in accident reconstruction and collision analysis.
• Strong understanding of vehicle dynamics, occupant kinematics, and safety standards in both low and high‑speed accidents.
• 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.

Benefits What We Offer:

• Dedicated case management and administrative support from initial client intake to billing and collections that allows you to focus on doing what you love, delivering expert insights.
• Marketing and business development initiatives designed to generate new case opportunities and expand your reach and visibility in the legal industry.
• Peer review support and access to a multidisciplinary team of experts across Accident Reconstruction, Trucking, Digital Forensics, Human Factors, and related specialties.
• Report writing support and professional development opportunities, such as deposition coaching, testimony training, and continuing education in your field.
• Flexible engagement structure.
• A collaborative environment where your expertise is valued, and your contributions directly influence case outcomes.

If you are an engineer with a passion for forensic analysis and helping uncover the facts behind accidents, we want to hear from you.
