From the outset of any incident, Sinars Law provides the following first-rate legal services which are vital to any claim: 

• Collection and preservation of evidence (at the scene or as soon as possible after notification) including obtaining witness statements, photographs, video, logbooks, weather reports, GPS or tracking devices, maintenance records and other telematic data.
• An immediate assessment of the accident, road conditions, road hazards, signage, and landscape to develop an early assessment of causation.
• Utilization of experts, including accident and reconstruction experts, biochemical experts, and specific equipment experts to gather any forensic evidence available including drone video, event data, recording device data, on-board video, etc.
