b. If your search reveals an expert with a partial profile, or you call after an unsuccessful search of our online database, or you prefer to call without searching at all, qualified individuals will receive a number of CVs of appropriate experts by fax, with no obligation. This can be done in a matter of hours. There is no fee for a defense scientific or technical referral.

2. Fees to receive, review and forward medical records and a detailed cover letter to a qualified physician of our choice vary. These include scheduling the exam with a practicing, Board Certified physician in good standing. We also advise the claimant, or plaintiff’s attorney, and confirm arrangements prior to the exam. After the exam we receive the expert’s report and proof it to be sure your questions are answered. Follow up services are also available.
