A message from ARCCA's President

ARCCA Inc., Incorporated is a Biomechanical, Forensic Engineering and Litigation Consulting firm specializing in the analysis and communication of complex issues. In 1987, Alan Cantor founded ARCCA with the original mission of improving crash survival. Since then, some of the top experts in the fields of crash safety and impact biomechanics joined ARCCA. Early projects included designing new escape devices for the space shuttle and helping to reduce the injury rate for naval aviators through advancements in aircrew ejection and crash-protective seating.

Soon, the ARCCA team emerged as a nationally recognized leader in the crash survival field where we remain today. You may recognize the ARCCA name from our involvement in the TWA Flight 800 investigation or from our testimony before the U.S. Congress regarding child seats and airbags.
