Question: Should A Securities Expert Witness Always Be Paid In Advance Of Testimony?
Answer: Yes, at all times. To do otherwise is to imply to the arbitration panel that you, the expert, have a stake in the outcome of the hearing i.e. participation in any award granted by the arbitrators. This, of course, would remove any credibility from your testimony and label you nothing more than a "hired gun" in the process.
