Expert Witness Valuations Reports

Impartial advice

Expert Witnesses are often used to resolve disputes between parties on land and property related matters. Whether acting as a Single Joint Expert (SJE) for two parties or specifically as an Expert Witness for an individual, we have a wide range of experience.

An expert’s primary duty is to ensure that the evidence provided:

• Is independent, unbiased and falls within the expert’s expertise, experience, and knowledge
• States the main facts and assumptions it is based upon, and must not omit material facts that may be relevant to any conclusions drawn
• Is impartial and uninfluenced by those instructing or paying the expert to give evidence

Our expert witnesses must comply with strict mandatory guidelines including guidance produced by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors and the Civil Procedures Rules.

GSC Grays have a number of surveyors who are qualified to act as Expert Witnesses. We cover rural and general property concerns such as land and property values, partnership dissolutions and matrimonial disputes.

Boundary Disputes

Drawing the right lines

Often, drawings and plans from historic transactions are used in conveyances which, if incorrect, can lead to years of boundary disputes which can be very costly and stressful.

We offer to visit your site to check the facts and measurements, leaving you with an accurate updated drawing which should enable you to make clear development plans or sell your property with peace of mind.
