CIVIL & CRIMINAL TRIAL ATTORNEYS WITH OTHER CASES
(Cases Which Do Not Involve Alcohol-Test Results)

If you have a case that involves Hospital Reports or Laboratory Reports, or one where you know or anticipate that you will have to deal with a "clash of experts"—with conflicting reports and expert opinions—and where you are going to have to prepare for direct and cross of those experts—I CAN HELP YOU WITH THOSE PROBLEMS.

Most trial attorneys and litigators recognize that, whenever you have a clash of expert opinions and conflicting testimony, certain kinds of problems recur—no matter what the subject matter of the case in question. In each instance, there are certain obstacles the attorney confronts:

• Wading through a mass of technical language to understand clearly the nature and extent of the differences involved (the place where opinions diverge, and why)
  
  
• Reviewing the back-up journal articles, texts and reports cited in support of opinions to weigh their strengths, inconsistencies, weaknesses and applicability (to the propositions for which they are enlisted)

WHEN YOU AS THE ATTORNEY HAVE DONE THAT KIND OF WORK, PART OF YOUR JOB IS DONE—BUT YOU HAVE MORE TO DO (AND THIS IS WHERE I CAN HELP YOU)—YOU MUST STILL

• Be sure that the questions you ask your own experts in your preparation cover all of the "trouble areas" that might arise at trial
  
• Be sure that your own expert is ready for the "trouble areas" that could be encountered on depositions or when writing reports
  
• That your own expert (in jury trials in particular) is prepared to present his/her testimony in an EFFECTIVE manner (as a genuine human being providing understandable explanations—as not just a technical expert, but as a real person with real credibility)
  
• Be sure that your depositions and discovery obtain all of the information available (or as much as can be anticipated)
  
• Identify in reports, depositions and written reports, opinions which contain errors, omissions and oversights, or which overreach and exceed supporting data (both by your own or opposing experts)
  
• Be sure that you are ready to conduct opposing depositions and to cross-examine opposing experts EFFECTIVELY

IF RETAINED FOR SUCH A CASE, I WILL BE GLAD TO ASSIST YOU BY PERFORMING ANY OF THE FOLLOWING SERVICES

• Initial Review of your Summary and Statement of the Case and Issues (as you see them at that point), With Your Specific Questions or "Trouble areas" Identified, and with Applicable Documents Attached
  
• Provide You With Either a Written Report or Phone Consultation
  
• Provide Checklists and Suggestions (If I Have Any) For Further Needed Discovery
  
• Evaluation With You Of Newly Discovered Facts And Documents
  
• Assist You With Preparation for Your Direct & Cross of Experts
  

That last item, in particular, is an area in which I can often be helpful if you have an expert you have never used before (unknown quantity as an "effective" witness), or one whom you know to have very good expertise but who has not done particularly well when used before with courts or juries—it is likely that his/her presentation on the stand needs work.
