Practical strategies for obtaining expert evidence in intellectual property proceedings
As intellectual property law develops through changes to legislation and continued litigation through the courts, and changes to Court Rules and Practice Notes occur, the ways in which experts are instructed and evidence is obtained from them has also needed to change and evolve.
