Expert Evidence

“Expert evidence makes or breaks the plaintiff’s case – if unreliable expert evidence is admitted on liability or damages issues, a defendant’s chances of success are significantly diminished. PLAC has been on the forefront of the law concerning admissibility of expert evidence, consistently arguing to appellate courts that objective standards are necessary to assure that only reliable evidence from qualified experts is admitted at trial, whether the legal standard is defined by Fed.R.Evid. 702 and Daubert and its progeny, or state standards based on the Frye rule.”—
