Safety professionals are often engaged by attorneys to work as
expert witnesses to help the attorney make certain technical
arguments at trial or understand technical issues in a case. In a
bylined article for Professional Safety, Louisville
partner Todd Logsdon explains the differences between a testifying
expert and consulting expert, and how the rules vary depending on
the type. Logsdon concludes his article by saying,
“Education, training and experience may qualify a safety
professional to serve as an expert witness, but knowing the rules
can improve one’s effectiveness.”
