What you'll receive
Impeaching expert witnesses requires exhaustive comparison of testimony transcripts, reports, publications, and credentials to find contradictions. Manual review of hundreds of pages across multiple documents takes days of attorney time and risks missing critical inconsistencies that could undermine the expert's credibility.

Manual review of hundreds of pages across multiple documents takes days of attorney time and risks missing critical inconsistencies that could undermine the expert's credibility.
CaseMark automatically analyzes all expert witness materials to identify contradictions, opinion changes, and methodological inconsistencies. The AI delivers a comprehensive impeachment roadmap with specific citations, cross-examination questions, and Daubert challenge assessment—transforming days of manual review into minutes.
This workflow is applicable across multiple practice areas and use cases
Personal injury cases frequently involve medical experts, accident reconstruction specialists, and economic damages experts whose testimony must be analyzed for inconsistencies during cross-examination and Daubert challenges.
Expert witnesses are central to personal injury litigation, and impeachment through testimony inconsistencies is a critical trial strategy for challenging medical causation, damages calculations, and liability opinions.
IP litigation heavily relies on technical experts for patent validity, infringement analysis, and damages calculations, requiring thorough analysis of expert reports and deposition testimony for cross-examination preparation.
Patent, trademark, and trade secret cases depend on expert testimony regarding technical matters and damages, making expert impeachment a crucial component of IP trial strategy.
Class certification and damages phases require extensive expert testimony on class definition, commonality, and aggregate damages, necessitating detailed analysis of expert reports for contradictions and Daubert challenges.
Class actions are expert-intensive cases where both certification and merits depend heavily on expert opinions, making expert impeachment critical for both plaintiffs challenging defense experts and defendants opposing certification.
Employment discrimination and wage-hour cases often involve economic experts, statisticians, and industry experts whose testimony on damages, statistical disparities, and industry standards must be scrutinized for inconsistencies.
Expert witnesses frequently testify in employment cases regarding lost wages, emotional distress damages, and statistical evidence of discrimination, making impeachment analysis essential for trial preparation.
Bankruptcy adversary proceedings and valuation disputes involve financial experts, forensic accountants, and industry valuation specialists whose opinions on solvency, fraudulent transfers, and asset values require impeachment analysis.
Expert testimony on financial matters, business valuations, and solvency opinions is common in bankruptcy litigation, making expert credibility challenges important for preference actions, fraudulent transfer claims, and plan confirmation disputes.
CaseMark identifies substantive opinion changes, methodological inconsistencies, factual contradictions, credential discrepancies, and unsupported conclusions. The analysis compares testimony transcripts against expert reports, declarations, CVs, published works, and prior testimony to find every material contradiction with specific citations.
CaseMark evaluates whether identified inconsistencies support challenges to the expert's methodology or qualifications under Daubert or Frye standards. The analysis highlights methodological deviations from accepted practices, gaps in the expert's knowledge, and opinions unsupported by disclosed methodology—all critical elements for exclusion motions.
Yes, CaseMark provides outputs designed for both settings. For depositions, use the analysis to identify areas requiring deeper questioning. For trial, leverage the prioritized impeachment points, cross-examination questions, and citation framework to systematically attack the expert's credibility before the factfinder.
Upload testimony and materials from prior cases as optional documents. CaseMark will compare the expert's current positions against their prior testimony, published works, and stated methodologies to identify inconsistencies that suggest bias, advocacy, or deviation from their established expertise.
Each cross-examination question is tied to specific inconsistencies with exact citations to the expert's own words. Questions are strategically sequenced to box in the expert, prevent evasion, and highlight contradictions effectively. The framework includes both foundational questions and impeachment strikes for maximum impact.
