Expert evidence and integrity: Our commitment to justice

At BNK9 Assesments, we understand the critical role of expert evidence in the UK legal system. Our commitment to accuracy, objectivity, and accountability forms the bedrock of our service, ensuring that justice is served with the highest standards of professional conduct. Discover how we uphold these principles in every assessment.

Understanding rule 19: Your assurance of impartial expertise

Rule 19 of the UK Criminal Procedure Rules (2025) outlines the framework for expert evidence, mandating that all experts provide objective, unbiased opinions to the court within their area of expertise. This rule requires us to actively assist with case management, comply with court directions, and promptly inform the court of any change in opinion should further information or evidence come to light. At BNK9 Assesments, our duty to the court is paramount, overriding any obligation to the party instructing us. This means you receive reports built on uncompromised integrity and a dedication to assisting the court fairly.

Transparency and trust: Our unwavering professional standards

We are unequivocally committed to full adherence with Part 19 of the UK Criminal Procedure Rules (2025). Our work is conducted with the utmost integrity, fairness, and accountability. In the spirit of openness and transparency, we acknowledge a personal matter involving Paul that resulted in a conviction, which was dealt with by the courts. This personal matter bears no relation to our professional activities at BNK9 Assesments, nor does it impact our core principles and professional standards, which remain steadfast and unchanged. Our focus remains on providing exceptional, impartial canine assessments.
