EXPERT TERMS OF SERVICE AGREEMENT
Thank you joining our expert witness network. These terms and conditions are designed to protect you as the expert and Mednick Associates. Our main requirements are that you bill through our firm for your time, work through us in the future if the client contacts you for more case work as we brokered the original relationship and that you complete the work in a timely manner or communicate effectively if the case will take longer than originally thought to review. We look forward to working with you and providing additional case work as warranted.
This Agreement is entered into between the prospective expert (known hereinafter as “you or “your”) and Mednick Associates (known hereinafter as “us” or “our”) as of today’s date.
You desire to render your services to us as an expert in your chosen field to us and agree to the following terms:
This Engagement letter is entered into between the prospective expert (known hereinafter as “you or “your”) and Mednick Associates (known hereinafter as “us” or “our”) as of [________] [__], 2025 (the “Effective Date”).
You desire to render your services as an expert in your chosen field and agree to the following terms:
1. Expert Services
Once you have accepted to work directly with the attorney on a case, you agree to handle all further communication and coordination related to that matter independently. This includes any additional document review, telephone conferences, written reports, deposition testimony, and trial testimony, should you determine the case has merit and you are able to support it. Mednick Associates’ involvement is limited solely to the initial referral, and we will not coordinate, manage, or collect any referral fee for services rendered beyond the initial assignment or any subsequent assignment given to you by the same attorney or law firm as our initial assignment.
That referral must be communicated to Mednick Associates and you agree to notify Mednick Associates regarding the same, so we can invoice and collect the aforementioned referral fee. This ensures proper tracking of referrals and maintains the integrity of our referral process.
If you identify a conflict of interest with any party or institution involved in the case, you must notify both the attorney and our office immediately and withdraw from the case. In such instances, no fee will be owed to you.2. Billing
Mednick Associates operates strictly on a referral fee basis. You will bill the client directly for your services and the client will pay you directly. Mednick Associates does not authorize, manage, guarantee or process payments for any expert services rendered.
Our involvement is limited to the initial referral. Once the referral is made and you have agreed to work directly with the attorney, all billing, scheduling, and further case activity is handled between you and the client. Mednick Associates does not collect any referral fee beyond the initial assignment and any subsequent fee with the same attorney or law firm as described in Section 1 hereto.
If you are ever uncertain whether an attorney or firm originated from a Mednick Associates referral, please contact us for confirmation.3. Independent Contractor Status
You will not be an employee of ours. You will be an independent contractor. Nothing in this Engagement Letter creates a partnership, joint venture, employment or agency relationship between the parties. This is a non-exclusive arrangement.
4. Expert Credential’s
You warrant and represent that all professional credentials, certifications, and licenses relevant to your area of expertise are current and valid. You further represent that you have never had a license or certification revoked or suspended, and that you have not been subject to any formal disciplinary action by any professional, regulatory, or certifying body. You agree to promptly disclose to Mednick Associates any issue—past or present—that could affect your credibility or standing as an expert.
5. Hold Harmless
You agree to hold Mednick Associates harmless from any and all claims, demands, liabilities, costs, expenses, damages, and causes of action arising out of or relating to your actions or omissions in connection with this engagement letter. You further agree and understand that all materials, documents, and information provided to you in connection with any referral are confidential and must be treated as such. You agree to maintain the confidentiality of all case-related information in accordance with applicable laws and professional standards.
6. Connecticut Law, Jurisdiction and Venue.
The laws of the state of Connecticut shall govern the agreement. Any action arising out of this agreement shall only be commenced and maintained in the County of Fairfield, State of Connecticut.
7. Attorney’s Fees
In the event of a dispute arising from this service arrangement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover all reasonable costs, including attorney’s fees, from the other party.
8. General
No waiver of any breach of this Engagement Letter, and no course of dealing between the parties, shall be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach of this Engagement Letter. You may not assign this Engagement Letter to any third party without the prior written consent of Mednick Associates. Any purported assignment in violation of this section shall be void. This Engagement Letter shall bind and inure to the benefit of the parties, their respective successors and permitted assigns. There are no third party beneficiaries to this Engagement Letter.
