Legal and Expert Witness

Litigation, legal and expert witness services and support for claims for damage relating to tree roots, fallen branches or negligent tree surveyors. We can also assist with legal issues relating to personal injury claims resulting from tree branches falling, tree climbing accidents and any other tree-related litigation or legal problem you may face.

Crown Tree Consultancy Ltd provide legal and expert witness evidence in all tree related matters.

Whether it be damage to property and subsequent compensation claims for tree root damage, tree-related subsidence, we are able to advise and assist in a wide range of legal and expert witness matters.

A neighbour can be held liable for damage caused by trees, even if some damage has occurred before they bought their property. This is because an owner of land continues to cause a nuisance (this type of claim is based on a legal nuisance) if with knowledge of the existence they failed to take reasonable steps to bring it to an end.

We have experience in the following areas:

Personal injury and property damage due to tree failure
Personal injury due to climbing accidents
Tree Preservation Orders and the law
Nuisance claims (neighbours failing to take action to rectify issues relating to damage by trees)
Tree Surveyor negligence
Complex vegetation related subsidence claims
Personal injury claims due to tree related tripping hazards

Our legal reports are tailored to meet the strict standards required by the courts. Our principal consultant has undertaken extensive legal training provided by Bond Solon. Our reports are methodical and unambiguous; conclusions are drawn from a comprehensive assessment of the case and well-reasoned arguments.

Tree Survey FAQs

"Excellent company to work with. Ivan was very professional and detailed in his survey, giving helpful recommendations and insight in to what would be needed in the Arboricultural Tree Impact report. Emma was very helpful and fast to respond with the report that we need for a planning application. The report was excellent and very detail. Would definitely recommend and work with them again. 10/10 guys."

"Very professional company and Emma Hoyle was very knowledgeable. We received regular updates without prompting which appears to be very rare nowadays. Would recommend them without hesitation. With their help we also obtained the result we were looking for with regard to our tree enquiry which is always a bonus. Great!"
