Every assignment is led by a partner with significant experience in litigation matters who will assist you to identify key issues, retrieve critical information in support of your case and assess the initial financial implications of the claim. We also liaise with other experts to produce independent reports for use in negotiation or litigation, while making ourselves available to advise attorneys and legal counsel throughout and act as an expert witness.
We ensure that, throughout the progress of our work, you are kept aware of our findings. We advise you on the merits of your case, in all objectivity, and report to you in a clear and concise manner.
