Expert Witness & Expert Advisory Services

It is a fact of life that the majority of construction and engineering projects will experience some degree of cost overrun and/or delay and that claims for compensation will normally be made against the party or parties that are considered to be contractually responsible.

We possess particular expertise in the identification, assessment and presentation of quantum and delay entitlements that arise on such projects and are regularly appointed to act in an expert capacity (expert witness or expert advisory) on such matters.

The services we provide are naturally dependent on the directions and instructions we receive, but will typically entail some or all of the following:

• Providing impartial and objective opinion and advice to our client and legal team
• Preparing expert reports
• Attending ‘without prejudice’ meetings
• Preparing joint statements
• Presenting expert evidence to the tribunal

OC Expert Services can provide such services whether the tribunal is arbitration, adjudication or the courts.

We are professionally qualified to act as Expert Witnesses and are fully up to date with current practice and the law relating to the provision of expert evidence.
