Abstract
There is a potential role for the acoustical expert in litigation. The technical issues may involve aeroacoustics, underwater acoustics, physical effects of sound, environmental acoustics, noise, architectural acoustics, physiological acoustics, speech and hearing, music, psychoacoustics and/or bioacoustics. This brief paper offers an overview of the process of being an expert, the qualifications to be an expert and what is expected of an expert. The six general phases of an expert’s involvement—retention, investigation, discovery, deposition, preparation, trial—are addressed. Some antidotal experiences are presented.
