Case Study: “Defence of a Damages Claim” In a recent case, our expert witness was retained by DTMR (Department of Transport and Main Roads) to provide independent advice on the condition of a damaged road. The client was facing a damages claim from a third party, which alleged that the damage was caused by inadequate maintenance. Our expert witness conducted a thorough analysis of the road’s condition, including visual inspections, photographic evidence, and data collection from various sources. They then presented their findings to the court, highlighting key points such as:

• The extent of the damage
• The root cause of the damage (if any)
• The likelihood of similar damage occurring in the future

Through our expert testimony, it was established that the damage was caused by natural weather events, not inadequate maintenance. This exonerated DTMR and contributed to a successful outcome for the client.
