The term is a bit misleading, in the sense that an expert witness is not a witness in the normal sense of the term. Rather than witnessing a particular event, he/she provides an expert opinion on a issue vital to the case. Depending on the case, an expert witness could be anything from a pathologist to an engineer, an architect or an accountant - even a translator in some cases!
