You’ve got an amazing case, you are ready to take it to trial. Your claims are legitimate, there’s a potential for a large settlement, and you are feeling confident. You’re ready for court. You build your case; you do the research and feel like this one is going to be a slam dunk for your client.
You start to evaluate the needs for the case and one of those needs is your expert witnesses. You need a neurologist, an accident reconstructionist expert, an economist, a life plan expert, an orthopedic doctor and a traffic safety expert. You start searching for your witnesses and find out that you are facing more than $100,000 in expert witness fees. That’s a big outlay, more than you are comfortable shouldering at this point in your firm’s lifecycle. What do you do? You’ve got options of course; refer the case to a firm who can afford the upfront costs and may not have your client’s best interests in mind or settle and your client gets a fraction of their recovery.

The odds are stacked in favor of the arguing party with the biggest coffers. It’s something law firms struggle with regularly. Do we take a loan, tap our savings, mortgage our homes or something more drastic to just take a case to court?
