Expert Witness Services
Water and waste management expert witness services in commercial and criminal defence proceedings.
- Our analysis of prosecution and litigant evidence in relation to quantifying and sampling of: waste; water discharges and bioaerosols have enabled clients to successfully defend against the Environment Agency’s threat of waste and/or water management prosecutions.
- Several cases have involved a review of the design and operation of drainage and water treatment infrastructure to identify design and operational faults. In a recent case we identified faulty design and construction practices which had contributed to sewage treatment failures. In another civil case our review of an airport’s environmental management practices enabled an international chemical company to successfully defend a large pollution damages claim.
- Our expert witness clients have included those from the following sectors: aviation, construction, food manufacturing, waste management, and chemical manufacturing.
Our in-house expert witness is a member of the Academy of Experts and has received formal cross examination training and has completed the Cardiff University Bond Solon Expert Witness Certificates in both civil and criminal law.
