Working with an Expert Witnesses

Expert witness testimony can sway an immigration judge from a denial to a grant and can be critical to winning a remand from the BIA. This session will provide insight into how collaboration between country conditions, mental health, and medical experts will strengthen your client’s case. We will cover how to prepare an expert witness to testify, how to qualify your expert witness in court, and common challenges to an expert’s qualifications and testimony. Attendees will leave with practical strategies to incorporate expert witnesses into your next case.
