The ethics and legality of conferring with another party's expert
CLA Queensland 22 August, 2024
Geoffrey Diehm KC, Hemmant's List; William Isdale, Hemmant's List; Ben Whitten, Hemmant's List (Chair)
The Hemmant's List Centre, L6, Santos Place, 32 Turbot Street, Brisbane
01:00PM to 02:00PM
The seminar will cover:
In the context of civil litigation, it it legal — and ethical — to confer with another party's expert witness?
Or does an expert owe duties — such as fiduciary duties — to the party retaining them
that would preclude this?
In this seminar, Geoffrey Diehm KC and William Isdale will consider and address these issues.
Their presentation is focussed on the legal position in Austraiia, but will discuss the relevance of some recent UK case law and whether it may be followed here.
Proudly supported by Hemmant's List
One CPD point.
The seminar will be recorded.
