Abstract

Bankruptcy litigation is different from other types of lawsuits in several aspects. These differences, such as the less formal setting, affect the rules on how a bankruptcy court handles expert witnesses. The same implication is true when it comes to the practices which defendants and plaintiffs should take in handling their experts.

In using or challenging an expert’s testimony, litigators need to be well versed about the applicability of the Daubert Rule in bankruptcy litigation as well as the conditions in which experts are required to provide a written report.

In this Webcast, The Knowledge Group brought together a team of distinguished thought leaders and professionals to help the audience understand effective and proper handling of expert witnesses in bankruptcy litigation. Speakers will also provide the best strategies on how attorneys can use or challenge an expert’s testimony.

Some of the major topics that will be covered in this course are:

- Expert Witness Testimony in Bankruptcy Litigation: Fundamentals
- Recent Judicial Trends and Developments
- Common Pitfalls
- Using or Challenging an Expert Testimony: Best Strategies
- What Lies Ahead
