Jorge Mendoza, a Mechanical Engineer, who utilizes state-of-the-art Photogrammetry and 3-D Computer Animation Technology to produce some of the countries most compelling forensic animation. Having a working association with experts in photography, accident reconstruction, human factors, biomechanics and the vision sciences, he uses cutting edge computer networks and software to push the envelope in courtroom presentation technology.

Mr. Mendoza has experience in the design and engineering analysis of aerospace equipment and has used computer aided design, failure analysis, and animation software for design and presentation purposes. His background also includes site inspection for the purpose of compiling a photographic log of the scene and collecting data for computer animation. Mr. Mendoza is experienced with the use and placement of video cameras on helicopters, cars, trucks, bikes, people and a design specific forty-foot pole.

Areas of Expertise:

Photogrammetry - the use of accident scene photos or surveillance video to determine the positions, velocities and dimensions of vehicles, people or objects of interest

Application of scientific and engineering principles to calculate trajectories, velocities, accelerations, and impact forces

Expert testimony for computer animation

For forty years, PAUL KAYFETZ, INC. through Mr. Kayfetz' expert testimony, has routinely admitted the following into evidence:

Driverseye Visibility Studies

Night-Time Photography

Computer and Video Simulations

Accident Reconstruction Photos

Photogrammetry Photo Measuring

Our computer engineers, video engineers and engineering photography experts:

Apply Accepted Engineering Measurements Procedures

Have Published Numerous Peer-Reviewed Engineering Papers

Use HD Video Systems that Produce Movie Theater Quality

Apply Cutting Edge Computer Techniques for Lifelike Photorealistic Images (not Computer Cartoons)

Coordinate with the Best Accident Reconstruction and Human Factors Experts for Technical Accuracy

We frequently help plan complete technical testing, visibility study, computer simulation and demonstrative evidence strategy - coordinating a group of technical witnesses who are independently retained by counsel. This is requested by many clients because of Mr. Kayfetz' track record, his previous career as an attorney, his extensive contact with top experts from his forty years experience as an engineering photography consultant working with the best forensic witnesses on many of the major cases during those decades, and upon his membership and participation in major engineering societies.

Each year we help attorneys win and save hundreds of millions of dollars in verdicts and settlements.

This results primarily from our experience and expertise. It also stems from our ability to discover measurements from existing photos. We are ahead of everyone in our field because we invest in HD cameras costing 250,000 each, six figure computer systems, custom engineering computer programs and staff engineers - not artists.

A major part of our work is evaluating and keeping out of evidence opponents' forensic photography, computer simulations, or computer animations which do not comply with the rules of evidence. This has swung multi-million dollar results several times in recent years.
