Inorganic Chemistry Expert Witnesses
Start Inorganic Chemistry Expert Search
Inorganic chemistry expert witness candidates generally have PhDs and backgrounds in forensic chemistry, forensic toxicology, inorganic chemical engineering, environmental chemistry, and/or analytical chemistry.
Inorganic chemistry studies the properties and behavior of inorganic compounds, which include metals and minerals. There is some overlap with organic chemistry (the study of carbon-containing compounds), such as organometallic compounds.
Litigation support by an inorganic chemistry expert often involves intellectual property matters such as a patent litigation or a trade secret dispute. An inorganic chemistry expert might also provide testimony in matters such as a product liability case, or a case that requires toxicology or chemical exposure expertise. A forensic chemist with specific knowledge in inorganic chemistry can assist in criminal investigations by analyzing evidence.
Litigation support by an inorganic chemistry expert witness can include laboratory tests, forensic analysis, an expert report, expert opinion, and courtroom testimony. Attorney clients may also utilize a chemical engineer for pre-litigation consultant work. The expertise of an inorganic chemistry expert witness will provide credibility to enable the jury to consider the evidence with the weight it deserves.

This expert's Ph.D. was in synthetic main group inorganic chemistry that involved the preparation of a wide variety of organic and inorganic compounds. Many of the novel compounds this expert synthesized required recrystallization as purification steps and to grow single crystals suitable for x-ray diffraction used to determine the structure. This expert has a strong background in the behavior of chemical species in solutions such as those used in the cyclic production of taurine. From the process chemistry side, this expert assisted an industrial client in the production of a new fire retardant that this expert helped develop. This was implemented in their manufacturing process used for a building material that required a precise amount of retardant added to pass fire resistance tests. In the years before consulting, this expert was a research scientist at an aerospace company that synthesized inorganic compounds on an industrial scale that were ultimately used to fabricate high temperature metal and ceramic components used in rocket engines. One major responsibility was to develop and implement a process to recycle scrap rhenium, a very rare and expensive metal used for these extreme environments, from acid solutions that were used to etch excess rhenium from vacuum chambers and furnaces. This expert has been consulting in technical litigation matters for many years. One of the matters for which this expert has been deposed was a patent infringement case involving a pharmaceutical. This expert has assisted on two other matters and has one active case involving intellectual property disputes.
