Testimonials

Winning cases requires a strong foundation of evidence and expertise. Here’s what our satisfied clients have to say about how The Accident Expert™ helped them achieve success

James McInnis

Retired judge

Big Lake/Lake Charles, LA

“Recently, I had need of technical information regarding those low profile concrete objects found in commercial handicapped parking areas, referred to as “wheel stops” / “car stops” / “tire stops.” At first glance, a person may wonder: “what technical information can possibly be associated with a plain stationary concrete object with no moving parts?” Well, as it turns out, Dr. Presswood furnished me with title, section, and paragraph of the ADA, ANSI and ASTM regulations and standards where “wheel stops” are referenced and the characteristics of what constitutes a “wheel stop.” Dr. Presswood dispelled any concerns I had about “wheel stops” when he unequivocally opined that “wheel stops” should never be used, period. By education, work history, and experience, I consider Dr. Presswood’s opinions on technical issues within his areas of expertise unimpeachable. Thank you, Dr. Presswood, for the pleasant experience I had working with you.”

Terry Michael

Executive Director of Washington Center for Politics & Journalism; former press secretary, Democratic National Committee:

“I’ve known Gary Presswood for over 40 years. His experience as a forensic engineer is unparalleled. During my career as a political press secretary, I worked for some of the best attorneys in the United States, including the late Charles T. Manatt, former Chairman of the Democratic National Committee and cofounder of the internationally known law firm, Manatt Phelps, headquartered in California and Washington. There is no doubt in my mind that a company at that level would find Dr. Presswood’s expertise invaluable.”
