At the outset of a lawsuit, an experienced attorney will formulate a discovery strategy that is geared toward learning as much as possible about who the opposing party’s trial witnesses will be, what their testimony will consist of, and what documents they will offer to support their claims.

In these instances, an outside expert can be used to help a client and his or her attorney gain a better understanding of how best to present a successful case.
