Legal professionals frequently use forensic graphics to support their arguments and help audiences better understand what happened. Some of the most common use cases for forensic visuals include the following:
Personal Injury and Accident Reconstruction
Explaining a client’s mechanism of injury to an audience of laypersons can be challenging. Similarly, breaking down the chain of events in an accident and demonstrating how the other party’s negligence contributed to the crash represents a major barrier to recovery in motor vehicle accident claims.
Forensic animations, alongside other trial graphics, visually demonstrate how an incident unfolded. You can use your animations in conjunction with expert testimony to promote credibility and information retention.
Criminal Defense and Prosecution
Forensic animations can recreate crime scenes in full 3D. In turn, they can relay information like bullet trajectories and environmental conditions relevant to the case. These visuals assist in proving or disproving witness accounts and other findings.
Medical Malpractice Cases
Nearly 90% of Americans struggle with health literacy, which means jurors who are presented with complex information in a verbal format may struggle to comprehend important facts of the case.
Illustrating surgical procedures or medical errors through forensic animations provides a better likelihood of understanding what the victim has endured. Subject matter experts can also give testimony during the illustration to explain what happened and whether medical professionals followed proper protocols.
