Forensic Foundations
  • For Experts
    • Have you been:
      • Asked to conduct investigations, analysis, assessment or examinations?
      • Asked to collect samples for legal testing?
      • Asked to write a legal report?
      • Asked to give expert evidence?
      Are you apprehensive about:
      • What this involves?
      • Your legal obligations
      • The difference between fact and opinion?
      • Court protocol?
      • How to correctly answer the questions in court?
    • Workshops
          • Forensic Foundations provides one or two day workshops for professionals or organizations whose expertise may be called upon by the legal system.

            Since 2008 we have assisted hundreds of experts with 95% positive feedback.

            Workshops are tailored to the needs and experience of the participants – no two workshops are identical.

            • The interface of science and law;
            • Quality management;

    • One on one training
          • Forensic Foundations offers individual training for experts called to give evidence. This training will not cover case specific issues but will cover the general issues and concerns experience by those about to give evidence.

            Whilst there is a common law prohibition against coaching or training of witnesses, here is an exception (found in MOMODOU, Henry; LIMANI, Beher [2005] EWCA Crim 177 at 62)

            Forensic Foundations offers individual training /support for experts called to wrote reports and/or give evidence. This training will not cover case specific issues but will cover the general issues and concerns experience by those about to give evidence.
