Preparing for Battle: How to Select and Arm Your Expert 3:45 PM-4:45 PM

Ethics CLE Rather than exclusively relying on Daubert motions to assess the scope and admissibility of expert opinion testimony, more courts are holding evidentiary expert witness hearings, as well as concurrent expert evidence hearings ("hot tub hearings"), to assess the scope and admissibility of expert opinion testimony. Using case studies from recent opinions, this panel will address how to select expert witnesses who will survive challenge to prepare expert witnesses to support their qualifications and opinions in these evidentiary hearings, and to adduce evidence that points out the flaws in opposing expert opinions.
