There is a lot at stake in medical malpractice cases. You want to do your best. I put together a book specifically for LNCs who are expert witnesses or considering taking on this rewarding role. It is called How to be a Successful Expert Witness.

Use this book to read through, refer to, and consult to gain a greater understanding of the role of the expert witness. I urge you to approach being an expert on a case as a tremendous opportunity and a huge responsibility. Engage in your work with professionalism and commitment. The attorney and his client are counting on you. This book draws on my experiences both as an expert witness and one who has trained hundreds of experts – nurses, physicians, and a variety of healthcare professionals.
