Surveyors Roundtable: Expert Witness




ProBoat Radio show

Summary: You may have surveyed boats for many years, but does that qualify you to testify on marine-accident reconstruction in the eyes of your home state? If you advise boat owners on a regular basis, do you know whether or not you are breaching state insurance regulations for public adjusters? The first time that opposing counsel begins to grill you, you’ll discover what it really means to be an “expert witness” and you may leave the stand feeling somewhat shaken. Our surveyors will share their own courtroom experiences, and they’ll point out the key elements that could pose substantial barriers to your testimony in court, too.
