How many experts do you require? Timing may be relevant to the answer as will costs proportionality, according to Dr Chris Pamplin, editor of UK Register of Expert Witnesses

Pamplin looks at two recent cases involving requests to adduce evidence, as part of an Expert Witness special in this week’s NLJ.

He advises: ‘If leave is to be sought to adduce additional expert evidence it should be sought at the earliest possible stage.’

Also in this week’s NLJ, Mark Solon, founder of Bond Solon expert training, takes a look at the two main types of legal privilege―legal advice privilege and litigation privilege. Solon covers recent case law on this fascinating subject.
