Episode #1 - Conflicts of interest – appointing experts from a global professional services firm

In the first episode, Frances is joined by Adrian Bell, CMS Partner and Co-Head of the ICE Disputes team, to discuss the recent Secretariat Court of Appeal decision, and the issues that can arise when opposing parties try to appoint experts in the same global professional services firm. This issue frequently arises during technically complex cross-border construction disputes where it can often be the case that finding the expert with the appropriate specialism is not a straightforward task.
