Court expert evidence in water-damage cases

A repair estimate alone may not explain the source of a leak, the heating configuration, ventilation, mould or the effect of drying. We help obtain source documents and formulate questions. The court appoints the examination and decides liability; appropriately qualified experts address the technical matters.

WHEN SPECIALIST KNOWLEDGE MATTERS

Questions we help
you address

We do not suggest an investigation simply as a precaution. First, we identify which facts actually matter to your case.

01

Property and construction

Quality and scope of construction work, defects, the technical condition of buildings and ways to remedy deficiencies.

02

Road accidents and vehicles

Accident circumstances, damage, a vehicle’s technical condition and the quality of repairs.

03

Property damage

The nature and causes of damage, including water damage, the work needed for restoration and its cost.

04

Asset valuation

Valuation of real estate, vehicles and other assets in property disputes.

05

Handwriting and signatures

Examination of handwritten entries and signatures in agreements, acknowledgements of debt and other documents.

06

Review of existing reports

Review of source data, methodology and the basis for conclusions. A written review may be prepared where appropriate.

Feasibility, scope and method are determined after reviewing the task. Each field is handled by an appropriately qualified specialist.

CLEAR PROFESSIONAL ROLES

Different skills.
A considered approach to your case.

The advocate

Legal work

Reviews documents and evidence, identifies legally relevant facts, prepares questions and applications, and represents your interests.

The specialist

Professional explanations

Helps clarify technical issues and materials and provides advice. The form of any written document or participation in proceedings depends on the type of case.

The court-appointed expert

A formally commissioned investigation

Performs the assigned examination and provides findings within their competence when an expert examination has been commissioned under the applicable procedural rules.

A privately commissioned report does not become a court-appointed expert report merely because it is submitted to the court. We consider its procedural status and use separately.

HOW WE WORK

From an initial conversation
to clear next steps

01

Discuss the issue

You explain the dispute, available documents and current stage of proceedings. The advocate identifies questions that require specialist knowledge.

02

Choose the approach

We discuss specialist advice, a privately commissioned investigation, a report review or an application to the court for an expert examination.

03

Prepare the materials

We refine the questions and the documents and objects required. We discuss timing, cost and arrangements for working together.

04

Consider the findings

We review the conclusions and limitations. The advocate assesses their relevance to the evidence, claims and further procedural steps.

Sharing case materials with specialists is agreed with the client. Legal services and expert investigations are discussed and agreed separately.

BEFORE YOU CONTACT US

What to know

Can a specialist assist if the case is already in court?

Yes. The advocate first reviews the stage of the case and the available materials. We then discuss an appropriate approach: advice, a report review, questions or an application to the court. Procedural deadlines are taken into account.

Who decides whether to appoint a court expert?

During court proceedings, the court decides whether to commission an expert examination. Parties may propose questions and an expert, but the final decision rests with the court.

Does an expert report guarantee a favourable outcome?

No. Conclusions depend on the investigation. An expert report has no predetermined evidentiary weight and is assessed by the court together with the other evidence.

How are fees determined, and what should I prepare?

Start with a brief description of the situation, the subject of the dispute and any upcoming deadlines. The advocate will agree the required documents and how to provide them. Expert fees and timing are clarified once the scope is defined.
