Ekspertarvamuse

Ekspertarvamuse, also known as expert witnessing, is a legal process where an individual with specialized knowledge or experience in a particular field testifies in a court of law. This person, known as an expert witness, provides opinions or inferences based on their expertise to help the court understand complex issues. Expert witnesses are often called upon in cases involving science, technology, medicine, engineering, or other specialized fields. Their testimony can be crucial in resolving disputes, as it provides a neutral and informed perspective that juries or judges may not possess. The process of becoming an expert witness typically involves extensive education, training, and often, practical experience in the relevant field. Once qualified, expert witnesses may be retained by attorneys to provide testimony in various legal proceedings, including civil, criminal, and administrative cases. Their role is to assist the court in making informed decisions by presenting evidence and analysis that are grounded in their professional expertise.
