Peter's panel session focuses on “Efficient use of experts and other case management best practices in construction arbitration."

Expert evidence is arguably the most important testimony in construction disputes. Although the use of expert evidence is now commonplace in construction arbitrations, tribunals are not always employing effective techniques to guide and manage the use and presentation of expert evidence. As a result, experts often rely on different data and address various questions, which can complicate the dispute rather than help the tribunal narrow down the issues.

This session will identify the main challenges and discuss best practices in the use and presentation of expert evidence. It will also examine how these practices differ when dealing with expedited procedures.
