Investigations Backed by Elite Law Enforcement Expertise
Delivering accident and crash investigations with precision and forensic depth rarely matched by other investigative firms.
Our team uses advanced reconstruction methods, evidence-based analysis, and decades of combined law enforcement experience to uncover the complete story behind a collision. A key differentiator is our in-house Drug Recognition Expert (DRE)—a highly trained specialist certified to identify impairment caused by alcohol, drugs, and other substances. In litigation, DRE evaluations are often pivotal in determining causation, responsibility, and credibility. Very few investigative firms have a DRE on staff – giving Delta’s clients a strategic advantage in complex and high-stakes cases.
Car Crash Investigation
We perform a comprehensive analysis of collision dynamics, vehicle damage, roadway conditions, and driver behavior.
Supported by thorough evidence collection—including scene photos, video, and physical documentation. Our team also locates and interviews witnesses to capture critical firsthand accounts. The result is a clear, defensible understanding of how and why the crash occurred, giving attorneys precise findings that strengthen liability arguments and case strategy.
18-Wheeler Investigation
Focusing on the truck-specific factors that frequently determine liability in commercial crashes.
We examine driver logs, Electronic Logging Device (ELD) data, Hours-of-Service compliance, maintenance records, load securement, brake systems, and pre-trip inspection requirements. We also analyze vehicle dynamics, crash damage, roadway evidence, and any available dashcam or surveillance video. By uncovering violations, fatigue indicators, mechanical failures, and operational errors, we deliver a detailed, fact-driven assessment that gives attorneys a powerful advantage in navigating complex commercial trucking cases.
DUI / DWI Case Evaluation
Our DUI/DWI evaluations combine evidence review, impairment analysis, and forensic assessment to determine whether intoxication contributed to a crash.
We analyze toxicology findings, officer observations, field sobriety tests, witness statements, and video evidence to verify the accuracy of impairment indicators. With former law enforcement investigators—and a Drug Recognition Expert (DRE)—on our team, we uncover missed details and pinpoint weaknesses in opposing claims, giving your firm a stronger foundation to pursue justice for clients and their families.
Intoxication Analysis
Our intoxication analysis examines alcohol and drug involvement using established detection methods, including toxicology reports, breath and blood tests, field sobriety performance, and behavioral indicators captured in video and witness statements.
With support from our in-house DRE and former law enforcement investigators, we verify the reliability of each finding and determine how impairment may have contributed to the crash, giving your firm clear insight for building a stronger case.
D.R.E. Reconstruction
Our DRE (Drug Recognition Expert) reconstruction uses specialized impairment analysis to determine whether alcohol or drugs influenced a driver’s actions before and during a crash.
Drawing on established protocols, behavioral indicators, toxicology interpretation, and scene evidence, our DRE identifies impairment patterns others often miss. These findings help attorneys confirm or challenge impairment claims, strengthen causation arguments, and present a clearer, more compelling case built on verified evidence.
Accident Reconstruction
Our accident reconstruction process includes documenting the scene, measuring key distances, examining vehicle damage, and reviewing roadway evidence to understand how the crash unfolded.
By evaluating vehicle movement, speed, angles, and contributing factors, we provide attorneys with a clear explanation of what happened and why.
Criminal Causation Analysis
Criminal causation analysis examines driver actions, vehicle behavior, environmental conditions, and signs of impairment or negligence to determine what contributed to a crash.
By reviewing physical evidence, witness accounts, roadway markings, and vehicle data, we identify whether criminal conduct—such as intoxication or reckless driving—played a role, giving attorneys a clear, fact-supported understanding of what contributed to the collision and how those elements affect liability.
Line of Sight Studies
Our accident reconstruction process includes documenting the scene, measuring key distances, examining vehicle damage, and reviewing roadway evidence to understand how the crash unfolded.
By evaluating vehicle movement, speed, angles, and contributing factors, we provide attorneys with a clear explanation of what happened and why.
Failure Analysis
Failure analysis evaluates whether a mechanical or system malfunction contributed to the crash.
This includes inspecting vehicle components, reviewing maintenance records, analyzing damage patterns, and identifying signs of wear, defects, or improper repairs. By determining whether brakes, steering, tires, or other critical systems failed or underperformed, we help attorneys understand the role mechanical issues may have played in the collision.
E.D.R. Retrieval (coming soon)
EDR (Event Data Recorder) retrieval involves accessing a vehicle’s onboard system and downloading crash data using specialized equipment.
The recorder captures key details such as speed, braking, throttle position, seatbelt use, and airbag deployment in the moments before impact. This objective data helps attorneys confirm driver actions, challenge conflicting statements, and better understand how the crash occurred.
Occupant Kinematics
Occupant kinematics analyzes how a person’s body moved inside the vehicle during the crash.
By reviewing seat position, restraints, injury patterns, and vehicle damage, we identify the forces involved and whether the injuries or reported movements match the crash dynamics. This helps attorneys understand injury mechanisms, evaluate credibility, and clarify how the crash affected those inside the vehicle.
Human Factors
Human factors analysis evaluates how a driver perceived, processed, and reacted to events leading up to the crash.
This includes reviewing visibility, reaction time, decision-making, distraction, impairment, fatigue, and environmental conditions that may have influenced behavior. Understanding these elements clarifies whether the driver’s actions were reasonable, avoidable, or contributed to the crash.
Vehicle System Failures
Vehicle system failure analysis determines whether issues like brake problems, steering defects, tire blowouts, or other mechanical faults contributed to a crash.
By inspecting key components, reviewing damage patterns, and assessing maintenance history, we identify whether a system failed, underperformed, or was improperly serviced—clarifying whether mechanical malfunction played a role.
Crash Scene Photos and Videos
Crash scene photos and videos capture essential details such as vehicle positions, damage, skid marks, debris patterns, traffic controls, roadway conditions, lighting, and environmental factors.
Documenting the scene preserves evidence exactly as it appeared at the time of the crash, allowing attorneys to verify claims, challenge conflicting accounts, and better understand how the collision occurred.
Crash Scene Measurements
Vehicle system failure analysis determines whether issues like brake problems, steering defects, tire blowouts, or other mechanical faults contributed to a crash.
By inspecting key components, reviewing damage patterns, and assessing maintenance history, we identify whether a system failed, underperformed, or was improperly serviced—clarifying whether mechanical malfunction played a role.
