Start Financial Law Expert Search
Financial law regulates insurance, derivatives, commercial banking, capital markets and investment banking. A financial law expert witness must not only have the appropriate substantive expertise, but should also possess the ability to explain complex financial issues and expert evidence to a judge and jury.
Litigation support by a financial law expert witness could include document analysis, an expert report, expert opinion, opposing counsel deposition, trial preparation, and testimony in court. In a high-profile case, or a litigation involving a significant financial stake, a law firm may request an expert with prior expert testimony experience. In addition, counsel may request a banking expert or financial law consulting expert for pre-litigation consulting work.
