Report for Cross-Examination

You will be cross-examined by a barrister during the day and should supply us with the following as soon as possible if you have not already done so - this must be received no later than 10 days prior to the course.

A copy of a short report which you have written. This need not be factual but should contain enough detail for you to be cross-examined.
A one page synopsis of points for attack on your report in cross-examination.
If the report was exchanged a copy of the opposing Expert’s report if available.
The case, which you choose to submit, should no longer be active as we are not allowed to rehearse for court.
If you are not able to supply a report a case study can be provided. This must, however, be by prior arrangement as you will need to study the report in advance of the course.
