Ed Fanning is quoted in a Law360 report on the New Jersey Supreme Court’s landmark decision adopting the Daubert standard and imposing stricter guidelines on expert testimony used to support claims in civil cases. Calling the ruling a “game changer” that reshapes expert witness standards in New Jersey, Ed explains “it will require that an expert apply a reliable methodology and far more scientific rigor in the analysis that supports their opinions.” The Supreme Court’s decision embraced arguments urging the adoption of the Daubert factor-based standard made by Fanning and fellow McCarter partner David Kott on behalf of amici curiae HealthCare Institute of New Jersey, New Jersey Business & Industry Association, Commerce and Industry Association of New Jersey and the New Jersey Chamber of Commerce.
