You can have confidence in the London team of RICS Expert Witness surveyors because of the following:
An expert witness surveyor gives the court an independent, impartial opinion on building, valuation or boundary matters – their duty is to the court, not to the party paying them. Under Civil Procedure Rules Part 35, the expert’s report must set out their qualifications, the instructions received, the facts relied on and a statement of truth in a prescribed form; reports that fall short are routinely excluded or heavily discounted. The surveyors we arrange prepare CPR Part 35-compliant expert reports for county court and High Court proceedings, act as single joint experts where the parties agree, take part in expert meetings and joint statements, and give oral evidence at trial where required. Every instruction starts with a conflict check and a clear fee estimate, so solicitors and litigants know exactly where they stand before committing.
Kingston Surveyors arranges RICS expert witnesses across the full spread of property disputes: boundary disputes, housing disrepair claims, dilapidations, valuation disputes, professional negligence against surveyors, party wall disputes and construction defects.
