For expert witnesses/lawyers

I’m a former forensic scientist that left the field several years ago. I recently received a subpoena from a case I worked and suggested to DA to have evidence re-worked by the lab or stipulation. If I am required to testify (as an expert witness), I would need to book a flight, hotel, etc. My question is this: can I ask for my requested hourly rate, travel, and hotel to be covered when speaking with DA or is that “not how this works” as the investigator put it?

The DA cannot tell you how much you will be compensated. You need to tell the DA what your fees are. As an expert witness you can demand (yes, demand) to get paid for the following:

- Travel Fee to cover travel expenses
- Hourly Rate to cover lost wages
- Review Fee (hourly rate to review case evidence, documentation, etc)
- Deposition Fee (hourly late for participation)
- Court Fee (hourly rate to appear in court)

Check the rates in your state. But make sure you charge for all 5 types of fees. .
