Many so called “forklift experts” have very minimal forklift safety expertise, its only a small part of their overall background.
We are first and foremost a forklift safety and training company. Only a small percentage of our overall revenue comes from forklift expert witness work. Each of our forklift expert witnesses has personally trained thousands of forklift operators and hundreds of forklift trainers. Our forklift experts all have investigated many forklifts accidents and injuries in the field. Forklift Training Systems participates in a limited number of forklift expert witness cases each year and we are selective about the cases we accept. Our in house experts work both plaintiff and defense cases.
Our forklift experts have decades of operational experience and can personally operate many types of forklifts.
We have experience on sit down propane/gas/diesel, sit down electric, stand up reach, man up order picker, walkie and walkie rider pallet jacks, tuggers, rough terrain forklifts and more. Our experts are also very familiar with the operation of forklifts from many different manufacturers. These include, but not limited to: Big Joe, Bendi, Caterpillar, Clark, Crown, Daewoo, Drexel, Genie, Hyster, JLG, Komatsu, Linde, Lull, Mitsubishi, Moffett, Princeton, Raymond, Sky track, Toyota and Yale. We work with many applications including paper, metal working, plastics, general manufacturing, warehousing and construction to name a few.
We are in touch with the latest changes to the OSHA and ANSI standards.
Our forklift experts are also familiar with many other obscure documents surrounding forklift safety, information which other forklift experts might not even know exists. Our areas or expertise include general forklift safety, pedestrian safety, forklift certification and OSHA compliance. We are not mechanical or engineering experts, but if you need help in those areas we can guide you in the right direction. Our forklift experts participate in continuing education on a regular basis and have attended classes at various state agencies and manufacturers to continually improve their knowledge and experience. We are experienced in document review, report writing, depositions, deposition/trial question development and have worked cases in state or federal courts. Our attention to detail and integrity is unmatched in the industry.
