CPR 35 Expert Witness Inspections Explained

A Part 35 Compliant Expert Witness report must include both the facts and assumptions utilised by the Expert. Additionally, it should contain any relevant analysis along with the Expert’s opinion regarding the matter at hand. A Part 35 Compliant Expert Witness Report (also known as a CPR 35 Compliant Report) offers an expert’s opinion on a specific subject within their area of expertise, aiding the court in making informed decisions on matters outside its knowledge.

Given that these reports serve as evidence in court, they must adhere to strict rules to ensure compliance with Civil Procedure Rules (CPR). All expert witness reports must be accurate, current and impartial, providing a clear overview of the situation without bias. A Part 35 Compliant Expert Witness Report should include both the facts and assumptions considered by the expert, along with any relevant analysis and their opinion on the matter. Furthermore, each report must outline the expert’s qualifications and detail the methodology employed in its preparation.

We begin by thoroughly reviewing the nature of your property dispute or related matter, gathering all necessary documents and evidence for a comprehensive assessment. This is followed by an in-depth property evaluation, including site inspections guided by legislative requirements, Building Regulations, and local authority standards.

After completing the analysis, we compile our findings into a detailed report, incorporating relevant legal frameworks and expert opinions. Should your case require legal proceedings, we are prepared to serve as expert witnesses, providing clear and well-reasoned testimony to support your position.

Once the case is resolved, we will meet with you to discuss the outcome, offer any further recommendations, and ensure that you are fully informed and satisfied with our service.
