“Defense experts aren’t here for the truth. They’re here for the paycheck. Show the jury that and you can overcome them.” – Tom Crosley

Welcome to Winning The TBI Case hosted by trial lawyer Tom Crosley. Listen each week as Tom provides practical, powerful guidance for litigating traumatic brain injury cases.

Overcome “Junk Science” to Gain Jury Trust

Defense lawyers do not like TBI cases. They are complicated. They are potentially permanent. They can be expensive. When they are unable to argue the injury away, they turn to hired gun experts wielding junk science. In this episode, Tom breaks down the three main types of defense experts every litigator will face and reveals the systematic approach to dismantling their credibility on cross-examination. Tom shares real trial examples of exposing confirmation bias, flipping defense buzzwords against them, and why following the money trail is your most powerful weapon against these paid opinion witnesses.
