Why us

Why Instruct Paediatric Experts

Solicitors instruct us because the process is clear, the experts are independent, and you see who you are getting before you commit. We act for either side, and every report is written to the expert’s CPR Part 35 duty to the court.

Why solicitors choose us

Five things you can rely on from the first enquiry to the delivered report.

Consultant reviewing paediatric case records
Independent paediatric evidence, prepared to CPR Part 35 for either side.

Independent, for either side

Our experts report for claimant or defendant, and their duty is to the court, not to the instructing party. That independence is what makes the opinion useful, and it is stated plainly in every report under CPR Part 35.

You see the CV first

We send the expert’s CV before you instruct, so you can satisfy yourself on qualifications and court experience. You commit only when you are confident the expert is right for the case.
