The court rules, practice directions and guidance provide the framework for expert evidence in litigation. Isabel’s talk will help you as an expert navigate them safely:
- Giving an insight into the work of the Civil Procedure Rule Committee; how court rules and practice directions are made and revised and the simplification and clarification project.
- Looking at the interaction of the rules, practice directions and guidance.
- Exploring the current framework and considering future changes.
After the meeting there will be an opportunity to continue the conversation and network over drinks in Gray’s Inn Bar.
