The lab

Run by the people who do the work

Collision Sciences Australia is a vehicle data forensics lab in St Peters, Sydney.

Tim Allen

CEO · Co-founder

Tim founded the lab after 30 years with NSW Police as an electronic evidence specialist, finishing in the Electronic Evidence Branch. He holds a Master of Cyber Security from UNSW Canberra at the Australian Defence Force Academy and has given expert evidence in NSW criminal courts.

Rabih Sfarjalani

Technical co-founder

Rabih spent 15 years in policing before co-founding the lab. He leads the bench work: module-level extraction, chip-off recovery and the tooling behind it. He received the 2026 IAATI President's Award.

Who we act for

The lab acts for law enforcement agencies and major insurers across Australia and New Zealand, alongside the private crash investigators and academic researchers who work with them.

We do not take defence legal work, so the lab is never on the other side of your matter.

Across Australia

The lab runs the CrashScan platform with insurer assessors across Australia.

Where the lab is: St Peters, Sydney NSW.
