The normal format for Expert Witness advice includes:

 

  • consideration of the circumstances from documentation

  • site visit

  • preparation of draft report

  • preparation of final report with all necessary site and background information

 

Two copies of the final report are provided together with electronic copies within the basic report cost.

 

The report will normally include safety cage overlays over the site plan together with an analysis of the safety of the golf shot. The cost also includes survey work where necessary.

 

Where required, a joint statement can be prepared where two experts are required by the Court to prepare such a document.

 

Expert opinion can also be provided on any issues within the skills available, not only when a court case is involved but also for example in the preparation of Risk Assessments.
