Report Writing Workshop

About this course

This interactive half day workshop focusing on report writing builds on the Introduction to the role of the Expert Witness course. The trainers will provide more in-depth guidance on how to write well-structured logical reports which are capable of withstanding scrutiny in the witness box. The session will include practical exercises designed to put the learning into real life context, including the critique of a mock report and consideration of how a barrister will use expert reports in cross examination.

The course runs from 9.30am – 1pm online.

I had given evidence a dozen times and still walked out of cross-examination rattled. This training changed how I prepare entirely.

The Enhancing Expertise conference with McDermott KC Law was a fantastic conference and full of valuable insights for both seasoned experts and ones new to the world of acting as an expert witness. Gerard and Michelle, as were all the speakers, were engaging and genuinely interested in practically supporting all the experts in attendance to improve their ability to deliver their expert opinions to the court, to the standards expected. An added bonus was the high-quality materials that were provided to all attendees, including a really good practical guide to being an expert witness that we could take away and reflect on. More days like these please!

This gave me a much clearer sense of what the court actually expects from expert evidence, not just the theory, but how to present it under real scrutiny. I would recommend it to any expert, however experienced.

Practical, well-structured and directly relevant to the reports I write every week. The mock cross-examination session alone was worth attending for.
