There is a limit to the expertise of a lawyer. Cases involving industry-specific matters can be extremely complex without professional assistance. This is where an expert witness comes in. 

An expert witness is someone with specialized knowledge or skill in a particular field, such as a medical professional. Thus, an expert testimony typically involves the evaluation of a material fact presented in court proceedings. It is an expert witness's duty to give an impartial opinion on issues raised in the court within the scope of their expertise.
