In January 2021 TAE has launched a Guidance Note for Experts Witnesses taking part in the Commercial Mediation process. The Guidance has been put together by a panel of ‘experts’ representing both the legal profession as well as practicing Expert Witnesses.
- Laurence Cobb (Chairman)
- Chantal-Aimée Doerries QC – Atkin Chambers
- Derek Nelson – HKA
- James Taylor – Jackson Rowe
- Roger Isaacs – Milsted Langdon
- Max Twivy – Atkin Chambers
The meeting itself will be a panel discussion comprised of some of the members of the working party that produced the Guidance:
- Laurence Cobb (Chairman)
- Derek Nelson – HKA
- James Taylor – Jackson Rowe
- Roger Isaacs – Milsted Langdon
As Mediation continues to be used more and more there is an increasing likelihood that experts, whether or are not they are mediation qualified, will be drawn into the process and this is a valuable piece of guidance. As ever this will be an interactive meeting and an opportunity to question the authors directly.
