Although you’ve probably heard this a thousand times, it’s worth repeating: An expert witness can make or break a case. A well-prepared expert witness will certainly perform better at deposition, and significantly improve the outcome of a case. Thus preparing a professional witness is crucially important. Keep these tips in mind to prepare your expert before the deposition.
- Orient your expert witness to the law and the deposition process
- Provide the expert with all necessary materials and information
- Your expert witness needs to know all the facts of the case
- Prepare your expert witness for cross-examination
- Explain the likely goals of opposing counsel
- Don’t forget about the little things: Let your expert know when and where to appear, how many attorneys will likely be present, the anticipated length of the deposition, if the deposition will be videotaped, etc.
