Scot Montgomery

Making his base of operations in Cheyenne, Wyoming Scot works closely with he other members of TAI to complete investigations of Commercial Motor Vehicle (CMV) crashes and incidents that are assigned to TAIE by either Plaintiff Counsel or Defense Counsel. It is the responsibility of TAIE Consultants, including Montgomery, to investigate the crash/incident based on a review of Discovery/files. Additionally, TAIE consultants often inspect the CMV and/or area of the subject crash/incident, then determine as to contributing factors and/or causation opinions regarding the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSR), and/or the Motor Carrier industry's standards of care. Montgomery and the TAIE consultant team then work together to develop a comprehensive report and a set of non-biased opinions that would help the trier of the facts, the Jury, understand the seemingly impossible amount of information in the file.
