A Consulting Arborist Expert Witness should possess the four pillars of what constitutes an effective expert witness, which are knowledge, experience, impartiality, and effective communication. As an expert witness, one would be expected to render an opinion regarding in-depth matters with trees and the ability to understand and implement complex theories and formulas involved in the process of tree replacement and site rectification valuations.
These values are typically used in tree trespass legal cases or insurance liability cases for potential judicial monetary awards. The consulting Arborist should possess the ability to explain these concepts to lawyers, judges, and juries in a clear, concise and understandable manner. A Consulting Arborist Expert Witness would also be expected to create reports with the ability to explain the process and methodology used in creating the reports.
