An expert witness is a witness who, by education, training, skill, or experience, is believed to know a particular subject beyond that of the average person.

Expert witnesses and legal experts are officially and legally relied upon to provide specialized scientific, technical, or other opinions about an evidence or fact issue within the scope of their expertise. Their opinion is referred to as their expert opinion, as an assistant to the fact-finder. Expert witnesses may also deliver expert evidence and provide testimony about facts from the domain of their expertise. Attorneys use such professionals to help support their cases.

  1. It is interesting that expert witnesses are legally relied on for scientific and technical evidence or fact issues in court. My daughter is going to law school and she has been telling me about different types of witnesses. If I were a lawyer presenting information about explosives or something like that, I’d probably want an expert witness to include their testimony.
