Joe is an accident reconstructionist delivering meticulous and comprehensive collision analysis and reconstruction services catering to both passenger and commercial vehicles. Employing state-of-the-art data acquisition systems and advanced analysis tools, I adeptly collect and decipher pivotal data sourced from the scene, EDR black boxes, and other relevant sources. This data enables me to reconstruct the events leading up to the collision with a high level of accuracy and provide a scientifically supported analysis to assist with determining liability and contributory factors. I have investigated and reconstructed hundreds of crashes involving cars, trucks, pedestrians, bicyclists, electric scooters, motorcycles, etc. over the past 20+ years.
