Texas’ 2003 tort reform laws included a requirement that anyone filing a medical malpractice claim in the state must provide a medical expert’s report within 120 days of submitting their case. In other words, an expert witness is absolutely required if you are seeking compensation for a medical error.
Having medical experts on your side during a medical malpractice lawsuit is key to winning your case. A medical expert’s testimony can verify that your injury was the result of carelessness or negligence, help the jury understand the extent of your injuries, and help explain permanent injuries and future medical requirements. In addition, a medical witness can clearly explain the evidence in your case (medical records and medical bills) and that your medical issues were not pre-existing.
In addition to a medical expert, you may want other types of expert witnesses to testify during your trial, including an economic damage expert, a vocational rehabilitation expert, and a life care planning expert.
