Building a Strong Case: The Power of Witnesses 

April 23, 2024

In an era where video footage from smartphones, home security systems, and dashboard cameras is more prevalent than ever, one might assume that every moment of every incident is captured and available for review. However, this is not always the case. Many accidents and incidents still occur outside the digital eye, leaving gaps in the visual evidence. That’s where the power of witnesses comes into play in building a strong case. At Keller Postman, we understand the significant roles that both “lay” witnesses and “expert” witnesses play in piecing together the narrative of an incident.

Lay Witnesses: Your Story Through Their Eyes
A lay witness is typically someone who directly observed your accident or has personal knowledge about your character and how the accident has impacted your life. These individuals provide a narrative that can transform abstract events into relatable stories. When a lay witness shares what they saw or expresses how the incident has affected someone they know, it adds a personal dimension that can resonate deeply with a judge or jury.

For example, a friend or coworker can testify about your daily life before and after the accident, providing a clear picture of the physical and emotional toll it has taken. Such testimonials help in making your case not just a collection of facts and figures, but a story that others can understand and empathize with.

Expert Witnesses: Backing-Up the Facts
In more complex cases, the testimony of expert witnesses becomes crucial. These professionals, such as doctors, accident reconstruction analysts, or other specialists, are called upon to clarify the intricacies of the case. Their knowledge helps the court understand the technical aspects of what happened, bridging the gap between specialized information and accessible understanding.

However, obtaining statements from experts often comes at a significant cost. Recognizing this, our team at Keller Postman is prepared to find and finance the necessary expert witnesses to strengthen your case. We advance their fees as part of our commitment to securing the best possible outcome for you.

Both types of witnesses — those who add a personal touch and those who provide expert insights — are invaluable in ensuring you receive the compensation you deserve following an accident. Their testimonies not only complement the existing evidence but also enrich the narrative, making your case compelling and robust.

At Keller Postman, we are dedicated to assembling all the necessary pieces of evidence, including witness testimonies. We’re ready to start gathering this critical evidence for your case today. Let us help you build a strong case that stands firm in the pursuit of justice and fair compensation.
