Expert Witness Report

An Expert Witness Report is a written document prepared by a qualified medical expert who has been retained by a party in a medical malpractice lawsuit to provide opinion testimony on issues related to the standard of care, causation, and damages. The report typically includes a detailed analysis of the relevant medical records, literature, and other evidence, as well as the expert’s qualifications, methodology, and opinions. The purpose of the report is to provide a clear and concise summary of the expert’s testimony and to allow the opposing party an opportunity to prepare for cross-examination or rebuttal. Expert witness reports are typically exchanged between the parties during the discovery phase of the litigation and may be used to support or oppose motions for summary judgment or at trial.
