Dan Poor is an ASE Master Certified Automotive and Heavy Truck Expert with over 35 years of experience in mechanical diagnostics, repair, and vehicle evaluations, including the ASE L1 and L2 Advanced Diagnostics certifications. A U.S. Army veteran who served during Operation Desert Storm, Dan brings a disciplined, mission-focused approach to every case.
His career spans independent repair shops, dealership service departments, forensic investigations, and years teaching college-level automotive and heavy truck repair — including shop safety and procedures. That teaching background is why attorneys keep coming back: Dan can take an air brake system apart on paper and put it back together in words a jury follows.
The name CarSleuths reflects how Dan works. Every case is an investigation: physical evidence on the vehicle, the paper trail in the service records, the conditions at the scene. Dan pieces the clues together with your legal team and follows them wherever they lead — his reports say what the evidence supports, not what anyone hopes it shows.
Dan is frequently retained in matters involving repair shop customer injuries and slip and falls, commercial air brake failures, tire failures tied to service and maintenance, improper repair procedures, and post-accident vehicle analysis. His inspections and courtroom-ready reports have supported litigation, arbitration, and insurance claims across the U.S.
