Litigation often involves expert witnesses. Indeed, many cases rise and fall based on expert testimony. So nailing down what an expert will and will not testify about is critical to success. But deposing experts can be challenging.

On this episode, Robert sat down with Sia Baker-Barnes to discuss deposing expert witnesses. Sia shared her advice on how to prepare for expert depositions and how to conduct depositions with an eye towards cross-examination.
