  • Mr. Hocking acted as expert witness for us in a complex and contentious trespass and boundary dispute case heard at Truro County Court. The Successful outcome was in our opinion in no small part due to Mr. Hocking's expert report and his expert evidence given in court. Mr. Hocking had immediately fully grasped all of the circumstances and throughout was sensitive and considerate towards us and our position whilst also being independent and professional. Based on our personal experience we are happy to recommend Mr. Hocking's services including being an expert witness.
