School Experts

School expert witnesses may be utilized for numerous types of cases, since schools consist of so many varying facets, employees, locations, and activities. School expert consulting may provide information concerning such disciplines as safety and accident prevention, sports and recreation, real estate appraisal, various levels of education, school safety and child welfare, architecture and building development, construction, school accreditation, psychology, education administration, mechanical engineering, child and adolescence psychology, general contracting, and other related issues, as each may become the subject of a school-related lawsuit.

School expert witnesses are often called upon by cases to provide an expert opinion regarding possible safety violations in relation to school environments, as any such problem would be cause for possible lawsuits. As with any type of facility housing a lot of people, safety measures and standard of care must be implemented to prevent slips, trips, and falls, as well as other such incidents. Recreational and safety equipment is especially important for schools with playgrounds and other sports and recreation areas, as violations may lead to litigation over premises liability.

School expert witnesses may also be knowledgeable with teacher evaluations, worker safety, child negligence, educational law, peer harassment, bullying, campus safety, and other important disciplines in relation to school districts, school safety, and school performance. It is important that schools are operated in accordance with the proper codes and compliance for both employees and students.
