Service FAQs

A party appointed expert is instructed by one party in a dispute to provide expert witness evidence supporting their case. A single joint expert is appointed by agreement of both parties to provide an impartial expert opinion.

Our chartered building surveyors can act in either capacity while maintaining professionalism and impartiality.
