About CIF

Before engagement, we make every effort to determine a flat-rate price based on the description of the vehicle, photos, and any other available information you can provide. If a flat rate can be established upfront, that is what you will be invoiced, regardless of how long the retrieval takes.

Where vehicle complexity, access conditions, or data scope requires a range, we will communicate that range clearly before dispatch and confirm the final rate with you before beginning work.

Commercial carriers in the Atlanta metro area

Georgia is a fault-based tort state, meaning liability is contested in virtually every significant crash. Plaintiff attorneys, defense firms, and insurance carriers all need objective EDR evidence — and they need it before data is overwritten or vehicles are repaired.

Atlanta is also a top-five national trucking hub. I-75/I-85 carries some of the highest commercial vehicle volume in the country. Trucking cases carry large verdict exposure, and ECM data preservation is time-critical — creating premium demand for a local, credentialed specialist with fast response capability.

EV penetration is accelerating. Tesla, Rivian, and ADAS-equipped vehicles now represent a growing share of crash investigations, yet very few Southeast analysts hold the certifications and equipment to handle them. CIF is positioned at exactly this intersection.
