Program Description

Everyone encounters a bad day. Even seasoned expert witnesses occasionally encounter situations that spell potential disaster in performing their expert analysis, in preparing for trial, or on the witness stand. In this webinar, we will explore procedural, evidentiary, and human variables that prove problematic for many experts. We will explore the strategic approaches and tactics employed by the most effective experts when all appears to be going wrong.

Learning Objectives

After completing this webinar, attendees will be able to:

- Recognize the dangers that accompany shape-shifting cases
- Formulate ways to invoke the human factor in situations of adversity
- Employ the "hypothetical question" approach to avoid impeachment

Who Should Attend

Anyone who wants to learn the theory and basic tactics of cross examination, including attorneys, CPAs, engineers, real estate brokers, medical practitioners, insurance brokers, consultants, and others who serve as experts in litigation matters and as expert witnesses
