title: Expert evidence: do you have all the facts?
abstract: As a practising expert witness, or an accident and emergency nurse considering the move into the challenging world of litigation, do you have all the facts about expert evidence to hand? What is your role in the proceedings? When could you be sued for the advice you give? Should you ever accept a case on a no-win, no-fee basis?
