Expert opinion is proper when it would help to clarify an issue calling for professional or technical knowledge, possessed by the expert and beyond the ken of the typical juror. The expert must possess the requisite skill, training, education, knowledge or experience from which it can be assumed that the information imparted or the opinion rendered is reliable. The expert's opinion, taken as a whole, must also reflect an acceptable level of certainty in order to be admissible.
