Subject matter experts who strengthen your case from day one

Complex matters demand clear evidence and credible explanation. Our subject matter experts (SMEs)—from accident reconstructionists and medical specialists to valuation analysts and environmental scientists—work alongside your attorney to clarify facts, quantify damages, and present findings that hold up under scrutiny.

Whether you’re recovering after a not-at-fault collision or planning an estate that touches business and real estate, we pair the right experts to the right questions. The result: stronger negotiations, fewer surprises, and courtroom-ready evidence if litigation becomes necessary.

  • Personal Injury: medical treatment documentation, causation analysis, and insurance coverage mapping supported by medical and reconstruction experts.
  • Estate & Business: valuation of closely held businesses, forensic accounting, title and property reviews, and tax-aligned strategies.
  • Disputes & Compliance: technical proof for contracts, cybersecurity/IP, environmental, and regulatory matters.

How SMEs improve outcomes

Early expert involvement clarifies facts, aligns your treatment or transaction steps, and reduces avoidable disputes. When cases resolve, it’s often because key questions were answered convincingly—with methods that meet the standards for expert testimony.

  • Stronger negotiation leverage via credible, well-documented findings
  • Clear causation pathways and quantifiable damages
  • Trial-ready exhibits and reports that withstand cross-examination

Frequently asked questions about expert support

Here are answers to common questions about working with specialists on your matter. For guidance tailored to your situation, please contact us.

Who pays for experts?
Expert fees are discussed up front and confirmed in writing. In some matters, fees may be recoverable or reimbursed as part of a settlement or judgment, subject to law and case outcomes. We’ll outline options during intake.
Will experts testify?
When needed, yes. Many engagements begin with consultation and written opinions. If a case proceeds, experts can provide deposition and trial testimony consistent with the applicable rules of evidence.
Do I meet the expert?
Often yes, especially for evaluations, interviews, or preparation for testimony. We coordinate timing and format—virtual or in-person—based on your needs and the expert’s role.
How are experts selected for my case?
We match expertise to the precise questions at issue, prioritizing credentials, relevant experience, methodology, availability, and jurisdictional considerations. We also check for conflicts and prior testimony that could affect credibility.
When should an expert get involved?
Early is often best—especially for preserving evidence (e.g., vehicles, products, digital media), documenting injuries, or guiding compliance steps. Prompt engagement can reduce costs later by avoiding rework and spoliation disputes.
Can expert fees be recovered from the other side?
It depends on the claim type, governing law, and any contracts at issue. Some statutes or fee-shifting provisions allow recovery. We’ll evaluate this early and set expectations in writing.
