E Cigarettes Expert Witnesses

Start E Cigarettes Expert Search

E-cigarettes expert witness candidates are often medical professionals, or individuals in the tobacco or vaping product industry. In a high-profile case, or litigation involving a significant financial stake, a law firm may request an e-cigarette (electronic cigarette) specialist with prior expert testimony experience.

An e-cigarette is an electronic device that simulates tobacco product smoking (i.e., a conventional cigarette). Rather than smoke, e-cigarette users inhale a vapor. The vapor typically contains propylene glycol, glycerin, nicotine, flavors, and traces of nitrosamines, carcinogens, heavy metals, and metal nanoparticles. E-cigarette vapor has fewer toxic chemicals than cigarette smoke, but also contains harmful chemicals not found in tobacco smoke. E-cigarettes have been marketed as a safer alternative to cigarettes, which has led to lawsuits alleging deception and misrepresentation in the failure to disclose potential adverse health effects.

Litigation support by an e-cigarettes expert witness could involve intellectual property matters such as a patent litigation or a trade secret dispute. Wrongful death and product liability cases could also require the expertise of an electronic cigarette expert. Expert witness services by an expert specializing in e-cigarette technology or effects could include expert report preparation, expert opinion, depositions, and expert witness testimony in the courtroom.
