ATS’ expert witness services include comprehensive and defensible testimony in civil and criminal cases. Litigation can sink a company’s reputation and lead to significant costs, even for the winning side. Inadequate expert testimony can confuse a jury, muddle the defense or prosecution, and contribute to a mistrial, which is why clients turn to ATS for reliable and reputable support. We offer expert witness testimony, research, and laboratory testing in cases such as:
- Arson
- Breach of contract
- Insurance complaints
- Slip and fall
- Subrogation
- Vehicular accidents
Professional Consultants
Attorneys representing a party in a legal case may consult with an ATS expert for industry knowledge. For instance, if a client represents an injured party in a car crash, an ATS engineer can provide subject matter expertise on the biomechanics of the injury directly related to the collision.
Our state-of-the-art laboratory allows engineers to perform close inspections and tests to verify the condition of the evidence, such as a corroded wheel axle that triggered a loss of vehicular control. ATS’ main laboratory capabilities include:
When needed, an accident reconstructionist can consult with a mechanical or structural engineer to simulate a crash or catastrophic failure. Certain states permit accident reconstructions as evidence in a trial.
Courtroom Testimony
In a court case, jurors without industry knowledge must understand the facts of the case and their significance. Expert witnesses fill these gaps in knowledge to allow judges and juries to make informed rulings. In explaining the mechanics, physics, and material properties related to the event in question, our experts can take the jury through the conditions leading up to the moment of failure. Expert witnesses may also highlight the underlying causes of an incident, such as:
- Environmental forces
- Lack of maintenance
- Manufacture defect
- Improper installation or repair
- Material failure
- Poor materials
Our experts’ oral and written testimony can hold up to scrutiny from the opposition and Daubert challenges. Additionally, ATS offers evidence storage in a secure, temperature-controlled environment throughout testing and litigation.
