Your next trial could succeed or fail based on whether the expert’s opinion gets admitted or excluded. Based on their recent presentation to financial experts, we cover three key cases—Kelly, Sargon, and Sanchez—that govern expert opinions. We also cover some fundamentals and tips to protect expert work product.
Some things experts should remind their attorneys:
- “Don’t email me. Pick up the phone instead.”
- “My opinion is only as good as the facts you’ve told me to base them on.”
- “Kelly and Sargon are different objections!”
- “I am a CPA, not Warren Buffet.”
- Regarding the new amendments to FRE 702: “Expect a tougher fight on admissibility, especially on methodology and reliability of application.”
