Personal injury
If you are pursuing or defending a personal injury claim, you may need an independent expert witness in personal injury to provide impartial reports and reliable testimony. At Abbott Holliday, our chartered structural engineers act as expert witnesses in cases where building defects, unsafe premises, or poor maintenance have caused injury. We deliver CPR-compliant reports that stand up in UK courts, mediation, and insurance claims.
Personal Injury Expert Witness Reports
Our engineers prepare detailed personal injury expert witness reports to determine whether a structural issue or premises defect contributed to an accident. We can assist in insurance claims but also in litigation proceedings connected with injury on construction sites, injury as a result of collapsing structures or injuries sustained through tripping and slipping.
As well as producing a CPR-compliant Structural Engineer’s report, we can also assist in mediation and provide expert witness in court. Please contact us or pass our details to your solicitor so we can understand your case, walk you through our process and provide you with a quote.
Trip hazards
Often in cases that involve trip hazards, the court asks to see a report from a relevant professional expert, detailing the hazard in question, conducted by a surveyor or structural engineer. We are available to conduct such surveys and create CPR-compliant reports, (Civil Procedure Rules), which your solicitor can use in the case.
Additionally, all our structural engineers are chartered, which offers you reassurance that the most reliable and accurate professional opinion is being presented. Furthermore, if we are called to the stand to provide evidence in the witness box, our expert witness will be of the highest quality and professional competence.
