Choosing whether to retain an accident reconstruction expert for a case is a matter of judgment. There are times when the use of an expert is really essential but experience ought to direct the lawyer in figuring out when to use that expert. There are factors that can change the way motor vehicles move that cannot be taken into account merely using the average person's experience and common sense. An accident reconstruction expert is required if without the testimony of one the jury would not be able to understand the way the accident really occurred and the worth of the case merits the expense. If it is not necessary it might be better to let the jury go through the evidence and see through the story given by the defendant.
