Best Answer

The courts recognize two types of witnesses: expert witness (a person who has special knowledge or training and can educate the judge or jury when needed--such as a medical expert) and a general or "fact" witness (a person who can relay facts without opinion as to what happened).

Two types of witnesses are eyewitnesses, who personally observed the event in question, and expert witnesses, who possess specialized knowledge or skills in a particular area relevant to the case.
