Who offers formal experienced testimony in court?

The individual who offers formal experienced testimony in court is known as an Expert Witness. This person is typically engaged due to their specialized knowledge, skills, or experience in a particular field, which is relevant to the case at hand. They provide informed opinions and insights to help the court understand complex matters that are beyond the general knowledge of the layperson. Unlike other witnesses, an expert witness is allowed to offer opinions and draw conclusions based on the facts presented in the case.
