Expert Witnesses in the Civil Engineering & Land Planning Professions

Sep 06, 2022

In litigation cases, attorneys occasionally need to seek the support of non-law professionals to aide with interpreting conditions, codes, and other matters associated with their cases. These individuals are referred to as expert witnesses. An expert witness will review documentation related to the subject litigation case and form opinions that they share with the attorneys. For land use disputes, the areas that civil engineers and land planners can provide expert review and form opinions is vast.

 

A civil engineering expert witness can bring extensive knowledge to many types of cases that relate to land disputes, construction practices, and clarification on permitting regulations. A civil engineer is commonly retained as an expert witness for cases that involve soil erosion, grading, septic systems, encroachment, roadway construction, easements, and more.
