Re-designed website coming soon

byWiebke Morgan

we are planning to launch our new look website soon. It won't be completely different but will:

  •  be  mobile-friendly
  •  be easier to navigate
  • offer even more support

Based on member' feedback, we will add more fields to the Directory listings, and if you are a member, you can fill these in ahead of the launch under 'My Expert Profile'. Members will be able to state:

  • the types of courts they have experience of
  • how long they have been working as an expert witness
  • any languages they speak
  • whether they  offer a free consultation to lawyers or not.

A CV and the expert's Terms & Conditions can already be uploaded and are visible, so we encourage all those listed on our Directory to do this now.

Here are some screen-shots of what you can expect :

An improved and extended Knowledge Hub     

 

    New Knowledge Hub Detail 1



All sections can also be accessed via drop-down menu
