Expert Witness Reports

In the event of a dispute with a neighbour or a building contractor, it is always highly desirable to attempt to settle matters without reverting to Court action but sometimes this is unavoidable.  In such circumstances, there may be the need for the production of a suitable report from an Expert Witness.

To be valid for inclusion within a Court submission, an Expert Witness report must be in compliance with the Civil Procedure Rules part 35 (CPR 35).

Philip Smith, one of the two Directors at Smith Marston, has over 15 years of experience of producing Expert Witness reports and he has been accepted onto the RICS Expert Witness Registration Scheme, confirming the necessary level of expertise to act in this respect.

In his role as an Expert Witness, Philip has acted in cases regarding various types of dispute between clients and building contractors plus for a variety of boundary disputes and Right to Light cases.  Philip has also appeared in Court as an Expert Witness on a number of occasions.
