In the last few days I have been reading a LOT of expert witness testimony, while working with my new colleagues at Westlaw. For me, this is just fun, digging into thousands of collected and formatted expert depositions in the Westlaw collection, so as to ascertain litigation trends for future expert recruiting. I was in a sort of expert witness Disneyland.
Amidst all these documents that collectively painted a picture of specific litigation trends, certain passages would stand out from the usual high level of expert responses to examination, of which this is one. I offer it as evidence on the importance of early, frequent, and clear communication between expert and client.
Expert's statement: "So, but I'm not trying to say that I'm some sort of expert, I've been trained, I've been educated or anything like that. Follow what I'm saying?"
Yes, absolutely.
