Expert Report Partners helps solicitors, barristers and legal teams find suitably qualified independent experts for medico-legal reports, assessments and document reviews. We coordinate the matching, logistics and communication so you can concentrate on your case.
Commissioning expert evidence involves identifying the right discipline, checking availability, considering fees and coordinating the report timetable.
We work with independent specialists across medical, psychological, social care and related disciplines, connecting them with the professionals who need their opinion.
Our role is to understand the questions your report needs to address, help identify suitable expertise and coordinate the next steps. The expert’s opinion remains their own.
Experts owe their duty to the court. We respect that and do not seek to influence an expert’s findings or conclusions.
Where a suitable expert is identified, we provide relevant experience, availability, anticipated timescale and a quotation for review before you decide whether to proceed.
