Expert Witnesses: Maximizing Their Effectiveness

Pillsbury counsel, Andrew Lanphere, will participate in a panel discussion titled “Expert Best Practices After the 2010 Amendments” on February 26, 2014.

This panel will examine attorney-expert communications, expert discovery, and motion practice since the 2010 Amendments, which were intended to limit expert discovery by protecting from disclosure draft reports and certain communications between attorney and expert. Panelists will discuss whether and how that goal has been achieved as well as issues that persist in spite of the rule changes. Finally, the Panel will explore techniques for minimizing potential disputes with opposing counsel.
