Wow. Was I getting hosed when I started as a Jr CW in 2003! I don’t even think I cleared 30. When I left the agency in 2008 as a fully fledged Copywriter, I was making a meager 36. Good God. 😳

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?
