"an Expert is a person, who, due to specialized training and experience, may provide testimony to assist the trier of fact in understanding the evidence that is beyond the layperson's knowledge, or to determine a fact in an issue" (Moore, 1985)

A Mental Health Professional, who is trained to provide expert witness testimony...

• is able to form opinions based on known facts and objective evidence, not only on theory.
• although often hired by one side in a legal matter, does not serve as an advocate, but remains completely objective and impartial.
• is able to communicate opinions in clear, succinct, and persuasive manner, which can help the jury understand the case, not decide its outcome (Tsushima & Anderson, 1996).
