June 3, 2025 Register Now

Legal cases can often become complex, and navigating the technical details of a case can be challenging on your own. Selecting and engaging with expert witnesses is a critical component of building your case, as it can help build credibility and add clarity for the court. In addition, this will help aid in the court’s decision making as expert witnesses communicate informed opinions to the jury. Don’t go through this process alone—Forvis Mazars is here to assist!

In our last session of the Forensics Institute, our very own expert witnesses will help guide you through the process of selecting, engaging, and working with an expert witness. Gain practical tips on working with an expert witness, from the pre-litigation dispute phase all the way through closing arguments!
