Description
An expert’s report is an essential element in litigation. It must be clear, succinct, independent and well presented. An excellent report is also one of the most effective marketing tools that an expert will have in their career. Reports are seen by many professionals during litigation and often new instructions are received from opposition lawyers.
Many experts create their own report writing style or adopt other experts’ formats and styles, having rarely received constructive feedback from lawyers on what is required from their written report.
This course explores what lawyers and the courts expect and require from an expert’s report. You will be taught how to assess your own and other experts’ reports.
Working with our model format and techniques received during the training you will be able to produce, quickly and consistently, reports that are appropriate for use in litigation and can withstand cross examination.
This course can count towards the University of Aberdeen Bond Solon Expert Witness Certificate.
