Who’s Who Legal
Forensic Investigation, 2023
I was impressed by Jason Coyne's incredibly fast turnaround. They were very thorough, and the investigation was carried out with great attention to detail. The report was presented with clarity and ultimately helped me convince the counterparty to face up to the error of their ways, leading to a great settlement for my client.
Ally MacKenzie
Managing Associate, Addleshaw Goddard LLP
Jason Coyne provided objective and valuable expert material. In particular, he was available at very short notice to produce very well- presented graphics to illustrate difficult issues. I found his help of great assistance and would have no hesitation in recommending him.

Richard Mawrey KC
Henderson Chambers, 2 Harcourt Buildings
The technical investigation conducted by Jason Coyne was thorough and the presentation of his report was both objective and pertinent. I continue to have a high opinion of his abilities.
Martin Hicks KC
The Chambers of David Waters QC, 2 Hare Court
Jason was exceptionally helpful in identifying the core technical issues in a complex dispute and explaining complicated concepts in an accessible way. He brought clarity, reducing the issues in dispute significantly. He also put a huge amount of effort into the case. He presented his report in a balanced way, clearly understanding his duties as an expert, and was impressive in the way he gave evidence.

I have recommended Jason Coyne to a number of clients in heavy IT litigation because his expert reports are balanced, lucid and above all, jargon-free.
Matthew Lawson
The Chambers of Richard Ferguson QC
I prefer the expert evidence and approach of Mr Coyne… I consider that the conclusions of Mr Coyne, based on the far more substantial consideration of these important documents, are more reliable than those of Dr Worden…In my judgment, Mr Coyne emerged more or less unscathed from his four days of cross-examination by leading counsel.
Fraser J
Bates & others -v- Post Office, 2019
From the initial instruction, Jason Coyne provided robust, coherent and purposeful advice which paid particularly close attention to the instruction, a trait not always forthcoming in experts. I have no doubt his intervention was pivotal in making the other side face up to reality and eventually led to settlement. I would recommend him without hesitation.
Michael Green
Partner, Weightmans
We instructed Jason as Expert Witness in a complex software arbitration case in Brussels. Despite the short deadlines and technical nature of the case, his reports were clear and free from jargon. Jason was particularly good at finding metaphors to explain technical concepts in a simple manner to laymen, and his input proved valuable throughout a 2-day hearing.

We run a number of large IT-related litigation claims each year and Jason Coyne is by far and away the best expert we have come across. He is a rare breed because he understands system architecture and programming language. Unlike so many IT experts, he can actually get into the systems himself and determine what the problem is and so then we can establish who is responsible for it.
Philip Barden
Partner, Devonshires
We instructed Jason Coyne as an Expert Witness in a complex IT dispute in the Commercial Court of the Court of Session in Scotland. The dispute related to the impact of a number of highly technical issues on the failure to deliver a bespoke, business critical IT Managed Services contract. Jason provided an expert report giving his views on the reasons for the failure of the IT contract and responding to the arguments for the other party. His insight and experience were invaluable in helping us to understand and assess the various technical issues and advise our client accordingly, both when preparing for and conducting the trial.
