Independent software expert witness services for IT and software development disputes.
We provide technical discovery, root-cause analysis, and expert witness reports under CPR Part 35, helping solicitors, businesses, and claims teams understand what happened, why, and who bears responsibility when a software project fails or a system falls short.
Our expertise covers disputes across the software development lifecycle, including failed or abandoned projects, fitness-for-purpose and quality disputes, source code and intellectual property examination, failed system replacements and migrations, and disagreements between suppliers and their clients over what was delivered.
The practice is led by Frank Ray, a software engineer with over 20 years’ experience building business-critical systems for investment banking and asset management, and the author of “Better Software Requirements”. That hands-on software engineering experience, current and active, is what underpins clear and credible technical assessment in disputed matters.
