Expert Witness and Due Diligence
Disputes of a commercial or legal basis occur from time to time in the ingredient supply, manufacturing and retail areas of the food supply chain. It is important to ensure that impartial expert advice is sought as soon as possible.
In many cases with the right support claims can be settled out of court, saving time and money.

These include: pre-case assessment of viability of claim; review of evidence, drafting of report; telecoms to discuss case and report; meeting with joint expert and submission of joint report; attendance in court (if required).
