Our motor engineers will visit the site of the accident, with the insured driver, claimant, client, etc if required, and thoroughly examine, photograph and measure the widths of the roads, distances and any other relevant measurements.
We will consider how the traffic flows, the directions of movement in order to provide a report which will really take the Court to the scene. Our comprehensive locus report includes details on the traffic systems, road rules and regulations including speed limits, surface types, obstructions, road side furniture, road surface, gradients and any other useful information.
We regularly customise our locus reports to show specific requirements, such as the line of sight from a junction or the view from a distant witness. We can calculate time taken at a certain speed to cross these distances.
If you would like to instruct us to compile a CPR compliant report – simply email instructions to first.response@laird-assessors.com. Alternatively email pippa.saunders@laird-assessors.com for a sample locus report.

Why your firm should support working mothers to the hilt

If you are going to balance the demands of work and childcare, and stay sane, you need to adapt, and with any luck your firm will adapt with you. In doing so you will both win, and your respective productivity will soar. When I had my son, I realised just how lucky I was. Not only did I have the incredible support of my, and my husband’s, family through this life-changing time, but I had a firm that offered me complete flexibility and control over my return to business life.
