Our guest, James Caron, is a Certified Consulting Meteorologist and expert witness with nearly two decades of experience providing historical weather analysis for legal matters. In addition to his consulting practice, he leads meteorological operations across North America and Asia for Atmospheric G2, where his forecasts support critical decision-making in the energy sector.
Mr. Caron discusses how he transitioned into expert witness work through his CCM certification and shares insights on maintaining objectivity, preparing defensible reports, and communicating uncertainty in a scientific discipline where absolute certainty is rarely possible. He also explains why many weather-related cases settle before trial and emphasizes the importance of staying within one's area of expertise, even turning down engagements when the available data cannot support a reliable opinion.
Check out the full episode for our discussion on meteorological expert testimony, rebuttal reports, deposition preparation, working alongside other experts, and the role of scientific credibility in litigation.
