Expert witnesses are crucial in Ireland's legal system, providing valuable insights and evidence to help judges and juries make informed decisions.
Many experts are skilled in their field of expertise but lack a full understanding of their role and duties, the skills to write first class reports for court and give evidence confidently, particularly when vigorously challenged on their findings.
The recent Court of Appeal decision in Duffy v Brendan McGee 2022 again highlighted the duties and responsibilities of expert witnesses. The judgment of Collins J noted that, far too often, expert witnesses appear to fundamentally misunderstand their role and wrongly regard themselves as advocates for the cause of the party by whom they have been retained.
To become an effective expert witness, it's important to learn how present evidence with confidence and develop skills in report writing, courtroom presentation and cross examination. Our courses can help you hone these skills and become a more effective expert witness.
