Expert Witness

article image Agricultural, Rural, Commercial and Residential Expert Witnesses

At JHWalter we have a team of chartered surveyors and rural business consultants offering independent advice as expert witnesses in agricultural matters and commercial, residential and agricultural property. Each expert witness is experienced in taking instructions, interpreting the evidence and preparing opinion about liability and/or quantum on behalf of claimants and defendants as well as acting as Single Joint Expert. At all times, they are mindful of their duty to the court where they may be cross-examined on their views. Since 1999, the Civil Procedure Rules (CPR) have developed court proceedings (including the role of the Expert) to narrow the issues, ensure professional opinion is robustly held and make sure that litigation is proportionate. Our team of expert valuers, surveyors and business consultants pride themselves on true independence and well founded opinion based on the evidence they have gathered.
