Our law firm, located in Minneapolis, MN, recently resolved a truck case in which we represented a husband and wife whose auto was hit by a semi truck on a Minnesota highway. When we initially got the case, we were not sure who was at fault, so we began an investigation. We hired an accident reconstruction expert to piece together the forensic evidence at the scene:
- Skid marks
- Tire treads
- Damage on vehicles
Our expert was able to determine that the truck that had sideswiped our clients’ auto, causing it to spin out of control, go through the median and hit another vehicle head on. We then hired an animationist to do an animation of the accident. With this evidence, we were able to demonstrate how the accident occurred, and we won over $2,000,000 for our clients.
