Experts Must Have Over 10 Years Experience to Be Called

True/False

Experts must have over 10 years experience to be called as expert witnesses. The question of whether an individual is an expert or not is a matter for the judge. It is entirely subjective so a person who has practised medicine for 20 years may not be an expert if they have only done so on few occasions. Similarly, a person who has been doing their hobby for only 5 years may be an expert if the hobby activity was only invented 7 years ago.
