Expert Witness Compensation
Make sure you’re protected with vital expertise if your case, and your attorney, require it.
When you need to convince a judge or jury that your actions were reasonable and justified, an Expert Witness can make all the difference. That’s why Firearms Legal Protection will cover up to $10,000 in expert witness fees for our Individual Premium and Family Premium members.
What is an Expert Witness?
Someone with a level of special knowledge or proficiency in a specific field can be utilized as an expert witness.
Common examples are experts in ballistics, edged weapons, security footage analysis, forensic science, or any other field that can assist an attorney, judge, or jury in determining the reasonableness and justification of a use of weapon incident by a Firearms Legal Protection member.
How does Expert Witness Compensation help Firearms Legal Protection members?
Expert witnesses provide crucial insight to communicate scientific fact, standard practices, evaluations, and expert opinion that can help to demonstrate the necessary use of force on the part of an FLP member.
The skill and persuasiveness of an expert witness can be invaluable in a court of law. So, Firearms Legal Protection pays expert witnesses up to $10,000 for our members with Individual Premium and Family Premium Plans—in those instances when an attorney finds it necessary to make use of an expert witness.
