A forensic expert witness is a professional who provides expert testimony in legal cases, providing specialised knowledge and skills in a particular field. In addition to analysing evidence and providing expert opinions, forensic experts can provide reports or testimony in court.
Forensic expert witnesses often provide services such as investigating and reconstructing crime scenes, analysing DNA samples or fingerprints, examining digital evidence such as computer files or email communications, and providing expert opinions on matters such as ballistics and toxicology.
As well as providing expert opinions and analyses of evidence, forensic expert witnesses may also assist legal teams in developing strategies and providing guidance on legal issues related to their specific area of expertise.
