Surveying the Courtroom: A Land Expert’s Guide to Evidence and Civil Procedure

Land disputes are increasingly involving public rather than private interests. Wetland access is taking the place of estate boundaries, and the expert witness-whether a surveyor, appraiser, engineer, or biologist-is often called upon to help a court reach a decision. This book provides these witnesses with all of the crucial information they need to understand the legal process of land disputes, from the filing of a complaint to its resolution.
