I have acted in a similar number of boundary dispute and party wall matters and have also been recommended by the courts on several occasions as Single Joint Expert and as an arbitrator.
I have spoken publicly on the subject of expert evidence on a number of occasions and also written articles on property matters for the local and national press.
