Finding the right expert

Law firms looking for financial sector expert witnesses face a number of challenges in identifying the right expert in a specialised discipline, checking conflicts, developing a shortlist of suitable candidates on a discreet basis and assessing individuals’ strengths and weaknesses and prior track records.

Our experience – as experts ourselves and from working with our associates over an extended period – normally enables us to propose one or more candidates whom we consider the best equipped to address specific issues.

Our network also enables us to identify ‘new’ experts when recent or specialised industry experience is required, who will not appear in the usual directories and websites.

Where individuals have had little or no prior experience, we assist them with research and presentation, review their draft and final reports and help prepare them for the various stages of a dispute, including cross-examination.
