Identifying Hired-Gun Expert Witnesses

Why Hired Gun Expert Witness Research Matters

Hired-gun experts — those who derive the majority of their income from testimony, always testify for the same side, and tailor their opinions to the retaining party — undermine the integrity of expert testimony. Identifying these patterns requires analyzing testimony frequency, retention patterns, clinical practice status, and income from testimony. Our report surfaces these red flags.
