What this session will cover

Experts regularly play a central role in understanding and then resolving disputes, but can they act as an advisor and then an expert witness? In this panel event, hear from seasoned expert witnesses, instructing solicitors and a litigation funder about the benefits of instructing an expert advisor, the challenges it can bring in future formal dispute resolution processes, and leave with some top tips for how to obtain the best assistance from an expert without casting a shadow over their evidence.
