A laparoscopic surgery expert witness provides insight and testimony in legal cases involving minimally invasive surgical procedures. They can clarify complex medical issues, standard of care, and causation.

Subspecialties include gynecologic laparoscopy, urologic laparoscopy, bariatric surgery, and general surgical laparoscopy. Each has unique standards and potential complications.

An expert can review medical records to determine if proper procedure was followed, assess whether complications were avoidable, and testify on the impact of these complications.
