An Engineer in the Courtroom

Booknews

Engineers may become involved in litigation for various reasons, such as product liability and accident investigation cases. This reference introduces engineers to what they may expect to encounter in matters of litigation, in and out of the courtroom, such that they may be able to avoid litigation entirely; know what leads to litigation; understand what accidents are, and how they are caused; learn something about the litigation process; realize the importance of decisions made by an engineer; and be aware of how the engineer can assist the attorney.
