Bond Solon Reviews

Bit too much time spent on SARS

Has deepened my understanding of the interfaces, clarified common pitfalls and reinforced importance of lawful, proportionate and rights based desicion making.

The trainer was Umar. The course content and overview of Scottish Law and Procedure was very helpful and relevant to my expert witness practice.

Very informative course, as a current AFI within the EA I think that the course is pitched in the right area for the EA criminalinvestigators

Very good content and duration

useful to consider the time that a judge will have to read the report and balancing the report to offer speedy visibility and also detailed opinion

Very interesting. Like always in person training is always better if available but for online training it was excellent

Overall, it was a brilliant course, and I learned a great deal about the subject. To make the course even more effective, I would suggest including more examples of real, previously submitted expert witness reports, with direct discussion on how predictions and opinions were applied in practice and subsequently interpreted. That said, I found the course extremely informative and valuable, and I would certainly recommend it to colleagues.

Speaker/ teacher was very engaging, kind and patient. the report we were asked to review was very poor - it was the person's first ever report. it would be good to look at an example of a good report. also I am feeling very unsure about bringing a case study when I have never recieved instructions and the case studies were to do with businesses and surveyors (not medical field) so am feeling a bit lost as to how to make up a case study but will do my best. would be good if bond solon took into account that some of us have zero experience in being an expert witness (hence the reason for doing this course) and not ask us to imagine things that we have no experience of - perhaps provide us with a case study instead of asking us to make something up.

Good course on how to manage discussions between experts, which are essential in the work of an expert witness.
