Expert Witness
The team's peer-reviewed reports fulfil court requirements while conveying complex science simply and without jargon. Our forensic scientists are skilled communicators with a reputation for being fair-handed and robust. They often act as 'scientist for the court', even though the initial instruction may have been for the Defence. They give evidence in courts across the UK and internationally.
