Together with NERA, we kindly invite you to the Expert Witness Cross-Examination Workshop on 2 July 2024. The event will take place at NERA's offices in Berlin (Unter den Linden 14, 10117 Berlin).
Aim of the workshop is to give anyone interested the opportunity to plead before experienced arbitrators and cross-examine real experts from NERA. Teams of two participants acting as counsel and one NERA expert will, in self-study, analyse mock international arbitration case materials and prepare their cross-examination strategy. On the day of the "hearing", the teams will first deliver an opening statement (approx. 10 min) focusing on the topic of the expert opinions and then cross-examine (approx. 35 min) the opposing team's expert in front of experienced arbitrators.
The workshop will be followed by food, drinks and networking opportunities sponsored by NERA.
