As expert witnesses, the way in which we are perceived is a matter of how we present ourselves. While some areas of expertise are more casual, others require a buttoned-up, professional demeanor at all times. It is important to interact with our peers, engaging attorneys and fact-finders in a manner that fits both our profession and role as an expert.
