The role of an expert witness is to determine if the care given was above or below the standard of care.

 

By reviewing these medical malpractice cases, you'd be tapping into the skills, experience, training, and education you already use every day in clinical work. With focused training, I'll help you translate your medical skills to the legal field.

I'll show you how to put your skills to work FOR you, by becoming an expert witness.
