Software Expert Witnesses

What Are Software Expert Witnesses?

A computer software expert witness is a professional who understands computer software, how it works and how it can relate to any subject. Like any expert witness, they are able to analyze data and present it clearly to attorneys, judges, juries and anyone else who needs a crash course in the subject to better understand the case.

Today, nearly every industry runs on some kind of software, so these expert witnesses have experience working in a range of specialties. They can be especially helpful in software development disputes, intellectual property cases, product liability cases and similar litigation.
