Traumatic Brain Injury Expert Witnesses

What is a traumatic brain injury expert witness?

Traumatic brain injury expert witness candidates are typically PhD board certified neurologists, clinical psychologists or neuropsychiatrists, with extensive experience in neurosurgery, neuropsychology, emergency medicine, neuropsychiatry, clinical neuropsychology, or as a professor of neurology. The chosen expert may a member of an industry organization such as the American Neurological Association (ANA), the Society for Neuroscience (SfN), the American Association of Neurological Surgeons (AANS), the Association for Clinical Neurology and Mental Health (ACNM) and/or the American Medical Association (AMA).

What types of cases require a traumatic brain injury expert witness?

A traumatic brain injury (TBI) and head injury are often used interchangeably in health care. Many times, brain damage issues are at the heart of head injury cases.
