We are proud to announce a significant enhancement to our expert witness team, with Scott Hubbard and Aaron Stovell successfully achieving the RICS Expert Witness Certification. This accomplishment formally recognises their expertise and competence in a highly specialised field; reinforcing our commitment to providing the highest calibre of advice and support to our clients.
What is the RICS Expert Witness Certification?
Acting as an expert witness in valuation and surveying legal disputes demands more than just market knowledge; it requires a profound understanding of the legal system and an unwavering duty to the court. The Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) Expert Witness Certificate is a specialist qualification designed to validate this unique skill set.
As outlined by RICS, the certification assesses a professional's comprehensive understanding of the legal framework, evidence procedures, and the specific duties of an expert witness. It certifies that the holder is proficient in everything from report writing and evidence presentation to navigating courtroom procedures, ensuring they can provide objective and impartial advice that withstands the most rigorous scrutiny. Achieving this certification is a hallmark of professional excellence, demonstrating that a surveyor possesses the certified competence to act as a credible and effective expert witness.
