Occupant Injury and Kinematics

The greatest damages from motor vehicle collisions often arise due to injury claims from the involved occupants. Whether it is a high speed collision on the highway or a low speed fender bender on a side street, it is important to have a clear understanding of what was actually experienced by the occupants themselves. The study of how the human body responds to force and motion is referred to as Biomechanics. At Impact Forensics we have trial tested Biomechanical expertise that can assist you in understanding when injuries can be expected, what types of injuries those may be, and if the reported injuries are consistent with the incident.
