The Academy was established in 1987 to promote the better use of experts and to ensure that a standard of excellence is maintained and developed.
Practising members are drawn from a wide range of professional and practical experience. They are vetted for their expertise in both their primary disciplines and their experience of litigation procedures. Non practising members include solicitors and barristers with particular interest in the law and practice of expert evidence.
The Academy is both a professional society and a qualifying body which provides, for the first time, a single source of qualified independent experts experienced in a wide range of professional, commercial and industrial disciplines from around the world.
