Here is more info about the Expert Witness School:
Many of you attended WCICON21. One of the presenters was Dr. Gretchen Green, who discussed expert witness work and the earning potential of those working as expert witnesses. By way of disclosure, we have an affiliate relationship with the course creator, meaning if you purchase the course, we get paid too. Don't worry, it doesn't cost you any more to go through our links.
Expert Witness Startup School allows you to launch your own expert witness business in just 8 weeks. Using the knowledge and experience you have spent years building in medicine, you will be able to leverage that experience to create an additional income source. The course is in an investment of $3,000 in your future. With physicians charging a typical range of $500-$900 per hour for expert work, and a typical retainer of $2,500-$3,500, this course could pay for itself with one case.
Feedback
Here is some feedback from a couple of White Coat Investors who recently participated in this course:
- "I thought the course was excellent and I would take it again. The videos she provides are comprehensive, informative, and very well done. She provided excellent weekly support with online meetings to go over questions and clarify a bunch of concepts. Worth promoting to our physician community."
