A Property Value Witness Without Property in the Witness

Expropriation proceedings often become battles of experts. In such battles, the opinions and evidence of the right expert can be determinative. Before finding Mr. or Ms. Right, a party may consult several experts, some of whom may later be consulted by the opposing party. Can one party's Mr. Right be disqualified because he was previously consulted by the opposing party, who felt he was Mr. Wrong?
