"Lawyers have long known that expert testimony can make or break a case. Whether the issue concerns damages, causation, medical matters, engineering analysis, or economic modeling, experts provide the specialized knowledge courts rely on. Artificial intelligence (AI) has now entered this space, not as a replacement for experts but as a tool reshaping how expert testimony is analyzed, prepared, and challenged."
"AI as a Litigation Multiplier One of the most powerful uses of AI in expert work is large-scale review. Expert reports, deposition transcripts, prior testimony, data tables, and technical literature can now be analyzed at a scale no human team could reasonably manage. AI tools can flag internal inconsistencies, identify conflicts with prior opinions, and surface alternative explanations that might otherwise go unnoticed."
AI augments expert testimony preparation and analysis rather than replacing human experts. AI enables large-scale review of reports, transcripts, data tables, and technical literature, surfacing internal inconsistencies, conflicts with prior opinions, and alternative explanations that humans may miss. AI shifts routine review work away from lawyers, allowing focus on interpretation, judgment, and strategy while the system performs heavy lifting. AI can simulate adversarial questioning to pressure-test testimony and expose weaknesses. Careless or unvetted AI use can undermine credibility and risk exclusion of testimony. The resulting model is supplemental: lawyers and experts use AI to amplify insight and scrutiny.
