Why create 3D Litigation Models?
Factual Evidence
Litigation Models are used in the court room to present evidence in an easy-to-understand manner to help the judge & jury decide the outcome.
Crime Scene Reconstruction
An accurate, to-scale 3D Crime Scene Reconstruction model can take the place of a crime scene visit by the jury, thus saving time and expense. Seeing the 3D model throughout the trial reminds the jury of the crime scene layout & helps them visualize the scene & understand the facts.
Demonstrative Aids
A jury has a clearer understanding of the facts when presented with an accurate, to-scale 3D model compared to a picture.
Many of the modeling projects we have built are confidential which means we can’t share them. Here’s a selection of the projects we can share.
Montgomery County Murder Trial Model
HTS 3D Scanning Services scanned the structure on the crime scene property using a 3D laser scanner in order to replicate it, to-scale, and add it to this model with extreme accuracy. Vehicles, fence, bench (accurately placed) complete the model which was used in a murder trial by the Montgomery County District Attorney in Texas.

Disputed Liability Litigation Model
“In a complicated murder case involving two defendants, two firearms, two vehicles, and one terrified witness, we commissioned an accurate and illustrative 3D model of the scene to assist our witness in explaining what happened on the fateful night. We believe this model, together with our other preparations, allowed us to resolve the case with a satisfactory plea of guilty.”

“In a disputed liability case it is critical to show the layout of scene to prove our version of the event. The 3D model [shown below] allowed each witness to get up and give their testimony and show the jury visually. Seeing the scene in conjunction with the testimony lead the jury to conclude our client’s version of the events was the most credible and a zero offer case became a substantial verdict.”
