How Can a Financial Expert Witness Help Prepare Your Case?

When preparing a court case, you should utilize all resources to support your side of the argument. In banking court cases, a financial expert witness along with a good attorney can help your case immensely. Financial expert witnesses can help in ways that an attorney alone cannot.

Investigate the Facts
In very technical financial cases attorneys may need help understanding the facts of a case. A financial expert, someone who has had plenty of experience with banking and financial institutions and is verified as an expert witness can help your attorney understand the facts so your attorney can present them to the courtroom concisely.

Case Strategy

Along with analysis of the facts, an expert witness can help with case strategy. Complex financial cases need to be handled delicately, and the strategy you create for handling a case in court can have a huge effect on the end decision. Hiring someone who has had plenty of experience with these types of financial cases can only help when it comes to strategizing.

Using an Expert Witness as a Litigation Support Specialist

Are you working on a court case involving economic damages? For financial cases such as these, it is a great idea to hire a financial expert witness for litigation support. A financial expert witness should be much more than a math wizard, forensic accountant or market analyst. Analysis and calculations are only two of the jobs completed by the financial expert witness.

Communicate Findings to Court

When it comes to using an expert witness as a litigation support specialist, traditional finance and accounting skills are not enough. The expert witness you choose for your case must be able to communicate your findings to the court in a way that the jury can understand. Traditional accountants forget that the courtroom will not be full of other accountants and their accounting language will not easily be understood by everyone. Financial expert witnesses have plenty of experience relaying this information so everyone can understand it.

Help Attorneys Understand Financial Data

While attorneys are educated in many aspects of the law, they may not be particularly trained to completely understand financial data. This is where a financial expert witness will also be useful as a litigation support specialist. If the attorney can better understand the financial implications of data in a case, they will have a better chance of making a sound argument.
