About this listen
We start with explaining why expert opinions are needed and allowed by decision makers. We point to the need for the decision maker to trust both the expert and their opinion, and how compliance by the expert with the Expert Code of Conduct encourages such trust.
The straightforward contents of that Code are discussed, with examples given of the disastrous consequences of partisanship and/or junk science.
Staying within your 'field of expertise' is essential, even though you may have considerable understanding about related issues.
Basic information about the layout of expert reports is given.
How you should be questioned by your lawyer is outlined, along with how to respond if you are asked to do calculations.
Those experts who wish to be properly trained for the requirements of giving expert opinion evidence in courts and tribunals are urged to visit
https://unisearch.com.au and to join one of their online, one day, interactive workshops.
