For those who wish to increase their expert profile

 

Am I qualified to register with Expert-List?
At Expert-List, we define an expert witness as someone who, by reason of their education, training, skill or experience, is willing and able to provide expert opinion and evidence on matters within their area of expertise.
 
It is important to understand that experts qualified to register with Expert-List do not necessarily have to be the leading (or the most expensive) expert in their field. Rather, our experience is that those that seek expert opinion often require advice tailored to their or their client’s requirements, including their financial circumstances.
 
Provided you consider you meet these criteria, we would be delighted to have you register with Expert-List.

What information can I display about myself on Expert-List?
Expert-List has been designed to enable experts to disclose a significant amount of information about their experience and expertise. This is to allow those who require expert opinion to make an informed decision about which experts they might wish to instruct. Information that can be disclosed includes:
  • Professional and contact details.
  • Expert experience (significant assignments, recent evidence given).
  • Career history and significant directorships / trusteeships.
  • Academic record, languages, publications and presentations.
  • Qualifications, memberships, appointments, and awards.
  • File attachments (capability statements, articles etc).

 

What information should I display about myself on Expert-List?
While there is some basic information you are required to disclose about yourself on Expert-List (including contact details and a brief professional description), most of the informational requirements are optional. It is up to you to decide how much (or how little) information you wish to disclose. In making this decision, you may be guided by the disclosures of other experts in your field who are already listed.
 
It is useful to think of your listing as a shop window to your expertise – the more attractive your window display to potential customers, the more likely they are to require your services. Expert-List will assist you to maximise the look of your listing before it goes live.

 

I need to make changes to my expert listing. How do I do this?
If you wish to make changes to your listing, please contact us directly with the required changes. We will endeavour to update your listing as soon as possible following their receipt. To ensure the integrity of your listing, any changes will be confirmed with you before the revised entry goes live.
 
At Expert-List, we recognise the importance of keeping your listing up to date. Therefore, while we reserve the right to charge for significant adjustments to your listing, most changes will generally be made at no cost.
