There has been an enormous increase in construction litigation over the last decade. Many cases, whether heard before the courts or in arbitration, turn on technical facts rather than points of law, and the role of the expert witness - the architect, engineer or surveyor who gives technical evidence - has therefore grown considerably in importance. However, acting as an expert witness can be daunting for those who do not have extensive experience, and a good case can be lost by poor presentation of expert advice. Written jointly by a solicitor and a surveyor, this practical guide gives a step-by-step account of the expert's duties.
