Date: 30th September 2020

Time: 10.00 - 11.45am

Speaker: Nick Deal, Head of Expert Witness Training at Bond Solon.

You will find out:

• What is an expert witness?
• Why are they needed?
• What are their obligations?
• What does the court expect?
• What do the lawyers want?
• What are the dangers? (common pitfalls)

The session is open to researchers from all departments but is intended for PIs (or non-PI researchers who have already been approached about undertaking expert witness consulting). The session will be geared towards those who are new to expert witness consultancy but could be a useful refresher for someone who has done expert witness work in the past. Bond Solon will offer a 10% discount to anyone who attends and wishes to book one of their one-day expert witness courses: https://www.bondsolon.com/expert-witness/courses/.

The event will take place online using a virtual meeting platform. We will send a links to all registered participants shortly before the session begins.
