Considers how RICS members earning fees from conducting expert witness work can avoid the many serious pitfalls of this kind of work in the UK. Highlights the central importance of a clear understanding of the RICS mandatory practice statement "Surveyors acting as expert witnesses: RICS practice statement and guidance note" (ISBN 0854069607) and the Civil Procedure Rules. Looks at the expert witness's primary duty to the court or tribunal, the question of fees and the problems arising when a surveyor acts in the dual role of expert witness and advocate. Describes the purpose and remit of the RICS Expert Witness Registration Scheme.
