I have performed Expert Witness services for both Plaintiffs / Claimants and Defendants / Respondents on securities and commodity futures issues over the course of my career.
I do not hold myself out as an Expert Witness, but I am approached from time to time by attorneys who know of my expertise in these areas of law. These attorneys will generally ask me to take a look at the issues in the litigation and express an opinion.
Often times, I am then asked to serve as an Expert Witness if my opinion squares with the theory of their case. Sometimes I agree and sometimes I do not. I only will agree to serve as an Expert Witness in a case where I feel my expertise will assist the Arbitration Panel or Court in coming to the correct conclusion.
If you are involved in a dispute involving Securities and Commodity Futures, I have handled close to 100 such cases. I will guide you through the process of arbitration or mediation up to and including litigation and administrative proceedings, if necessary.
Depending on the nature of the case and my experience with the domain, I sometimes act as an expert witness on securities and commodity futures issues. If the role would be better served by another witness I will help you find that person.
