Employment litigation often rises or falls on the question of what the employer did to prevent and respond to workplace harassment and discrimination. When that is a key issue, an expert on the topic can make or break the case.

This program sets forth when attorneys should consider using such an expert, what the expert can (and cannot) testify about, at what stage to bring them in and how to make best use of their expertise. It will also set forth when the investigation of a complaint is the key issue as well as how such an expert will evaluate the case and structure their testimony.

Know when a liability expert would help in employment litigation and when it would not.
Know how to successfully work with a liability expert in an employment case.
Know how a workplace investigations expert will analyze a case and what they can testify about.
