Forensic Data Collection, Mapping & Plots - $1,200.00 per scene (includes data collection and color diagram)

The fee includes a review of all materials and an assessment of vehicle damage through photographs.

For cases involving claims of a suspicious nature, the foregoing is examined to determine if claimant allegations and the purported injures are consistent with the alleged collision, or if the damage was pre-existing.
