| Experts: letter of instruction This letter of instruction is suitable for a party appointed expert who is going to act as an expert witness. It is not written with a single joint expert or expert adviser in mind, and would have to be adapted for that purpose. It should be read in conjunction with the Experts: letter of instruction: drafting note. The terms of the retainer between the expert and the solicitor are set out in a separate Standard document, Experts: retainer letter with the aim of maintaining, as far as possible, any privilege in the retainer letter and avoiding having to disclose it. The retainer letter and the letter of instruction can be combined if you prefer. |
