Video: What is an Expert Witness?

Question:

Do I still have a case with disputed liability?

Answer:

It is very important to hire expert witnesses in cases where there's disputed liability over who's at fault for an accident. For example, an expert in a slip or trip and fall case is going to be able to tell us:

1. Are there any code violations associated with the particular condition that caused the injury? That is very important information to know.

2. An expert witness will also be able to tell us certain things about the the specifications for that type of situation or condition and whether those specs were followed.
