Why Is An Expert Witness Report Important?
An Expert Witness Report is an independent evaluation of building defects, incomplete works, structural failures and building disputes. Our reports are prepared by an independent expert witness that examines the property to save you from costly legal fees and lengthy litigation processes. Additionally, expert witness reports play an essential role in the judicial process, as they provide valuable evidence and opinions on complicated matters. This means the courts and tribunals rely heavily on the knowledge of experts to ensure that justice is served efficiently and fairly.
How We Help You:
At Owner Inspections, we can provide you with our expert knowledge to help guide you through this tough process. All our experts have a wealth of qualifications and experience enough to investigate the building issues. It is essential that an expert witness understands their duties, responsibility and ethical obligations when providing an expert opinion for a legal case.
Expert witness reports are required in various tribunals and courts across Australia. Depending on the nature of the building dispute and parties involved, this could include the Supreme Court, Federal Court, Magistrates’ Court, District Courts, Coroners Courts and State Civil and Administration Tribunals (VCAT, NCAT, QCAT, etc…)
