A successful Daubert challenge can result in a dismissal or dramatically push the parties to a settlement. Consider the Daubert factors when selecting an expert witness so you can avoid a challenge altogether. Strategically challenge an opponent's expert witness and adhere to the scheduling order and other timing requirements.
Watch so you can:
- Be familiar and comfortable with expert's specialization and testimony
- Keep expert's testimony within scope of his or her specialty
- Review relevant factors of MCL 600.2955 and MRE 702
- Frame issues for the judge
