Expert Witness Reports are usually prepared as a result of legal disputes and vary in their scope depending instructions.
The Expert Witness service will provide a clear unbiased report often including
a review of evidence,
the results of a site visit,
a safety review
together with objective opinions as required by CP35 in the UK and National Legislation in other countries.
Liability Reports are prepared as an outline opinion on liability of parties involved in an incident.
Although similar a similar structure to an Expert Witness Report, the Liability Report does not provide a written review of evidence.
It is often prepared to allow an understanding of whether or not there is a case to answer.
The fee for a Liability Report can be off-set against the cost of a full Expert Witness Report should the matter proceed further.
There are often two Assessments for courses or ranges.
• a design risk assessment
• an operational Risk Assessment
These may be combined as a General Risk Assessment
The Risk Assessment requires a detailed site visit and an examination of the design and maintenance regime of the course.
The report would normally follow the UK Health and Safety Risk Assessment format.
