Financial Expert Witness Communication / Wiley Corporate F&A (PDF)

Learn what to expect--and what's expected--as an
expert witness

Serving as a financial expert witness or consultant in lawsuits
is a stressful, challenging, and tough business. In Financial
Expert Witness Communication: A Practical Guide to Reporting and
Testimony, financial forensic expert Bradley J. Preber
leverages more than 30 years of experience to create a practical
guide for financial expert witnesses as they face litigation
reporting and testimony.

Financial Expert Witness Communication covers all areas
of financial litigation including accounting, financial forensics,
forensic technology, and damages--all from the point of view
of an expert witness. The book is especially helpful for those who
expect to be formally designated as an expert witness; however, it
is also appropriate for financial forensic accountants, litigation
consultants, and attorneys as they navigate the unique playing
field of the financial litigation process.

This book gives financial experts strategies to defend the
analysis, conclusions, and expert opinions they have at their
disposal. It also provides thorough explanations of compliance,
data limitations, and due diligence as well as how to handle
demanding legal counsel, with a goal of better preparing them for
the entire legal process.

The book is part of the Wiley Corporate F&A Series and was
created as an educational resource for nonattorney financial
experts involved with U.S.-based civil litigation or alternative
dispute resolution proceedings. It takes a well-rounded approach by
including special chapters on such concepts as retention,
privilege, responsibilities, ethics, and testimony, all written by
a nationally recognized expert. As a bonus, the companion website
presents an additional expert witness case study and guidelines for
fulfilling an expert witness role.
