The expert testimony in the common law countries is fundamentally different from the one in the continental European countries. According to the anglo-american law, both parties present the evidence to the court. Witnesses are examined and cross-examined. Most important, the expert is not appointed by the court or a helper of the court, but the expert is an expert witness. He is presented by one of the parties, examined and cross examined. Because some of the expert witnesses may be biased, there can be a war of experts.
普通法国家的专家证词与欧洲大陆国家的专家证词有根本区别。根据英美法，双方都向法庭提交证据。证人接受询问和交叉询问。最重要的是，专家不是由法庭指定的，也不是法庭的帮手，而是专家证人。他由一方当事人提供，接受询问和交叉询问。由于一些专家证人可能存在偏见，所以可能会出现专家之间的争论。
