14 August 2026 Sean Mosby 723 Podcast Podcast Episode 29: Acting for Litigants in Person by Sean Mosby This month on the Expert Matters Podcast, we discuss acting for litigants in person. The accessibility of tools like generative AI is making litigation more accessible to unrepresented parties and it is increasingly likely that experts will be approached by litigant in person. We provide some advice for experts approached by a litigant in person and discuss how an expert should deal with the situation where their previously represented party becomes a litigant in person. You can listen to the Expert Matters Podcast on a number of podcast apps, including spotify and apple podcasts.
