During the London International Disputes Week (LIDW), Accuracy and Herbert Smith Freehills Kramer hosted a panel discussion on this topic.
Our partner Tayo Okunade, alongside panellists from Herbert Smith Freehills Kramer, Atkin Chambers and Uniper, explored the following topics:
1. The role of independent expert evidence in resolving complex construction disputes
2. The need for experts to take responsibility for their reports while recognising the help of their assistants
3. The growing trend of hot-tubbing and witness conferencing to test expert evidence in arbitral proceedings
4. The importance of joint expert phases and reports in narrowing disputed issues and making the arbitration process more efficient
We would like to thank everyone at LIDW and those who participated for making this event a success!
