Podiatry expert witness, what is it? It is a Podiatrist that gives legal testimony before a court.Usually expert are called upon by lawyers and are able also to provide them with a medico Lego report to help resolve matters in professional matters.

However this kind of work that Podiatrists are called to undertake is usually very demanding and has to be tried and tested over many years, so any report writing must be able to stand the test of time.

There are specialized organizations that are able to assist lawyers when choosing a Podiatrist expert witness, one of the leading firms that specialize in this work are known as the Round Table http://www.roundtablegroup.com/about/areasofexpertise/

We at The Stephen Kite Practice UK are pleased to be a part of their portfolio of Podiatry experts.

Other well established expert witness firms include Society of expert witnesses,also the society of chiropodists and podiatrists have a list of experts.
The Academy of Experts are also a good place to find a Podiatrist expert Witness.

This kind of work that podiatrists can undertake though can be rigorous and can involve having to present your finding in a court of law and having to be cross examined with questions from top barristers, so it isn't for the faint hearted .
There are courses however that can train the podiatrists in court room techniques and if you are planning to take up such work it would be well advised to go on one of these courses.
