As such they can interpret scientific evidence collected for a case as well as explain technical concepts so that laypeople can understand them. An effective expert witness must be able to effectively communicate what it is they believe happened in clear terms which even a jury will comprehend.


These expert witnesses need extensive training in many areas including toxicology reports analysis & hazard assessments; risk management; manufacture /processing of hazardous materials; disposal & recycling chemicals safely; air/soil/water pollution control capital improvement processes & methods for reducing emissions risks associated with mixing hazardous wastes among many other topics associated with industrial / chemical engineering disciplines & sciences.
