Annual expert witness market in the US
Average time to hire through legacy agencies
Commission competitors charge on every single engagement
Law firms lose weeks — sometimes cases — because finding the right expert takes too long and costs too much.
Discovery deadlines don't move. When finding the right expert takes 6 weeks, your timeline is already compromised before the search begins.
A $15,000 expert engagement costs $3,000–4,500 in agency commission on top. That's overhead for a phone call and an email introduction.
The right biomechanical engineer in Phoenix is invisible to the law firm in Boston. Discoverability hasn't changed since the 1990s.
You can't see expert rates, case history, Daubert record, or availability before making a call. Every engagement starts blind.
Two sides, one platform. Both work better together.
Phase 1 (Now): Tell us your case needs — specialty, jurisdiction, timeline, and budget. Our team manually matches you with the best available experts within 24 hours.
Phase 2 (June 2026): Self-serve search with AI-powered recommendations and a written rationale for each match.
Phase 1 (Now): We send you curated expert profiles — credentials, licensure, case history, Daubert record, and current rates — before you make a single call.
Phase 2 (June 2026): Browse full profiles yourself on-platform, filtered by specialty, jurisdiction, and availability.
Phase 1 (Now): We make the introduction directly. You and the expert connect, align on scope, and move forward. No agency, no middleman in the relationship.

Phase 1 (Now): Fill out our onboarding form. We build your verified profile for you — specialty, credentials, case history, publications, rates, and availability. You review and approve it before it goes live.
Phase 2 (June 2026): Full self-serve profile builder with LinkedIn-style editing, analytics dashboard, and profile performance tracking.
Phase 1 (Now): When a law firm needs an expert in your specialty, we match them to your profile and make the introduction. You're contacted directly — no gatekeeper, no agency middleman.

Phase 1 (Now): We email you case details directly. Review the matter, respond on your timeline, accept only the work that fits. We take a 10% Case Match Fee on your first engagement per firm — then nothing, ever.
Phase 2 (June 2026): Manage all case inquiries through your SwornIn inbox. Full thread history, case summaries, and one-click accept/decline.

No credit card. No commitment. Just a professional profile that brings cases to you.
Unlike managed services that hide pricing behind a sales call, SwornIn pricing is simple and public. Founding member rates are locked in for 5 years — with grandfathering before any future adjustment.
Annual subscriptions include a monthly allotment of Case Inquiry Credits — SwornIn's version of LinkedIn InMail. Each credit lets you contact one expert directly through the platform.

Everything an expert witness needs to know before joining SwornIn's founding cohort.
In Phase 1 (now through May 2026), we email you case details directly — the firm's name, practice area, case summary, and timeline. You review it, ask any questions, and decide whether to accept. You control which cases you take on. In Phase 2 (June 2026), case inquiries arrive in your SwornIn inbox on-platform, with full thread history.
You control what law firms see: your specialty, credentials, licensure status, case history (if you choose to share), publications, Daubert record, your current rate ranges, and availability. Nothing goes live without your review and approval.
Yes, completely. You set your hourly rate, deposition rate, trial day rate — whatever structure fits your practice. Your rates are visible to law firms before they contact you, which means you only hear from firms who've already accepted your pricing. No back-and-forth negotiating from scratch.
We charge a 10% Case Match Fee on your first accepted engagement with any given law firm. After that, all future work with that firm is entirely yours — no commission, ever. Compare that to agencies that take 20–30% on every engagement, indefinitely. You invoice the firm directly; the Case Match Fee is simply deducted from your first invoice.
You invoice the law firm directly. Payment is between you and them — we don't touch it. The 10% Case Match Fee is deducted from your first engagement invoice per firm. All future engagements with that firm are 100% yours with no deduction.
Cancel anytime. No penalties, no lock-in beyond the 5-year founding rate (which is a benefit, not a restriction — you keep the $99/year pricing even if we raise rates). Any professional relationships you build with law firms through SwornIn are yours. You can continue working with those firms outside the platform with no obligation to us.
Yes — most expert witnesses work with multiple sources simultaneously. SwornIn doesn't require exclusivity. Think of your profile as an additional channel for case inquiries, not a replacement for anything you already have. The difference is you keep far more of what you earn here.
Three problems we kept hearing — from attorneys and expert witnesses alike.
"We had a filing deadline in 72 hours and couldn't find a qualified biomechanical engineer. Every agency said 2–3 weeks. We ended up settling for a weaker expert. That case should have gone differently."
"I'm a forensic accountant with 20 years of experience. The agency takes 25% of my fee for doing nothing more than emailing my CV to attorneys. I've been looking for an alternative for years."
"We hired an expert who had been excluded twice in the last three years under Daubert challenges — in similar case types. That information was out there. We just had no way to find it before we engaged."
These are composite stories from our research into the expert witness market. We're building SwornIn to fix all three.
We're telling you exactly where we are and where we're going — because founding members deserve the full picture.
