Experts are often relied upon in both private and public law cases. Practitioners need to be aware of the law surrounding who to instruct, how and why.

There is often confusion over the procedure and procedural elements, which will be explored.

There will be a consideration of Part 25 FPR 2010, and its relationship with Children and Families Act 2014.
