Hire an Expert Consultant for Your Financial Law Firm on a Regular Basis

financial expert witness
Many lawyers employ an expert witness or consultant for specific cases when a case has stagnated or when a third party can lend credence to an argument in court or even before a case gets to trial. However, they overlook the benefits of hiring an expert consultant simply to come in and speak with the firm’s staff on a regular basis. Hire an expert to come in at least once every few months, if not more often, even if you don’t have a specific case in mind for his services.

New Regulations
The biggest advantage to having a financial expert witness stop by the office even when you don’t have a particular case for him in mind is hearing from him about changes to banking regulations that could affect your ongoing and upcoming cases. Michael F. Richards prides himself in staying up-to-date on everything you’ll need to know. Rely on Richards’ decades of experience to interpret the changes accordingly and share how they can stand to benefit your clients.

Brief Consultations
With a regular meeting once every few months or even more often, you can run ongoing cases by your expert witness for a brief consultation. With a new set of eyes, he may uncover a new angle to the case you hadn’t considered before. Then you can decide if you want to hire him for a more in-depth approach to any of the individual cases.

New Ideas
With a regular update on regulations and new insights for existing cases, Richards may present you with new ideas for pursuing new clients and cases in the future.


Contact financial expert witness Michael F. Richards today and book a consultation for your law office. Between offering brief insights on any ongoing cases, acting as a fresh pair of eyes and updating the staff on changes in banking regulations, you’ll find his presence a welcome regular appointment.

Who Can You Consult About a Financial Legal Matter?

When it comes to pursuing a financial or banking legal matter, you generally secure a legal team before you bring in third parties such as consultants and expert witness services — the latter of which can prove more essential than you might expect when it comes to winning your case. However, what if you’re just in the early stages of pursuing a financial or banking legal matter? Can you still meet with a consultant or should you hire an attorney straight away? The answer depends on what you’re looking for.

An Attorney
As a third-party consultant and expert witness, Michael F. Richards usually works hand-in-hand with a team of lawyers to research and build the best possible case for the client. That means you can absolutely meet with an attorney before you reach out to us if you wish and let that law firm know that you have us in mind to provide testimony or assistance along the line.

A Former Client
Before you hire either an attorney or an expert witness, feel free to seek testimonials from former clients among your colleagues and social network. While some may not be free to discuss the particulars of their cases, they can at least tell you about their experiences working with their legal teams.
