What Are Medical Expert Witness Profiles, and How Can They Paint a Clearer Picture of Your Expert?

Experts in the field must have a thorough understanding of their entire field of operation, including the necessary terminology and medical training necessary to be medical expert witnesses for your case. They may be responsible for performing an independent medical examination on a patient or analyzing the effectiveness of medical treatments given to certain clients. This level of complexity means that your expert must be the best of the best, and there’s no better way to find that out than with our medical expert witness profiles.

Preliminary Medical Expert Screening Reports – 24-48 hours ($25) 

Our medical expert witness profiling services start with our Preliminary Screening Report. The Preliminary Screening Report gives you both a snapshot of an expert’s testimonial history and an accurate assessment of how prolific a testifier that expert has been in the past. But, most importantly, it is a tool to help you determine if there is enough information available regarding the expert to justify the investment in a full Expert Witness Profile.

Drawn from the broadest array of public and proprietary databases, these reports include the number of times the expert’s name was found in:

  • Affidavits and Reports
  • Dockets
  • Federal Agency Decisions
  • Jury Verdict Reports
  • Motions
  • Pleadings
  • Briefs
  • Orders
  • Opinions
  • State Agency Decisions
  • Transcripts and Depositions

In summary, preliminary medical expert screening reports will give you a basic idea of how prolific a testifier the expert has been, whether there is a likelihood of challenge activity in the expert’s past, and help to define the level of additional research required.
