Since many civil actions require expert opinion evidence the importance of such evidence cannot be overstated. This Webinar will discuss the importance of retaining credible experts including, for example, when (i.e. the timing) to retain an expert, what to look for when retaining an expert, how to instruct an expert, how to obtain an effective expert opinion and how to use an expert opinion to support and further your client’s case. Recent developments in the law on communicating with experts and disclosure of those communications will be covered as well.
