About this title

Synopsis

Expert witnesses have traditionally faced enormous challenges in the courtroom. The Daubert decision and the more recent Kumho ruling have further intensified the scrutiny on professionals in all disciplines expressing their expert opinions.

Effective Expert Witnessing, Fourth Edition broadens the scope of previous editions by featuring case studies and examples from a wide range of disciplines including psychology, medicine, forensics, toxicology, engineering, and environmental science. It presents legal survival strategies needed by expert witnesses in all fields by addressing the impact of the recent rulings regarding expert testimony. The fundamentals of the litigation process are thoroughly presented, with chapters on the pre-trial process, trial preparation, and the courtroom drama.
