Expert witnesses can play a critical role in personal injury cases by helping the court and jury understand complex or nuanced issues related to the case. They can provide specialized knowledge and professional opinions based on their expertise to clarify matters that the average person may not understand. Expert witnesses who provide unbiased and credible testimony could change the outcome of a case.
Medical malpractice is a tort, or wrongdoing, committed by a doctor or another health care provider against a patient. It is the failure to meet the required standards of care within the medical industry. When medical malpractice results in a patient injury, the victim can pursue financial compensation. However, the victim must file a medical malpractice claim within Connecticut’s statute of limitations.
