The problem

You bill $450/hour. You shouldn't spend 3 hours a month on invoicing.

  • Time entries in Toggl. Case notes in Word. Invoices in Excel. Nothing connects.
  • Attorney disputes a $15,000 invoice. No timestamped audit trail to defend it.
  • Different rates for file review, deposition, and trial — tracked by hand.

The solution

One tool built for how expert witnesses actually work

  • Cases, time entries, documents, expenses, and invoices in one place. No more juggling tools.
  • Audit-trail invoices with timestamped entries opposing counsel can't dispute.
  • Multi-rate time tracking — file review at $350, deposition at $500. Auto-filled.

11 activity types with per-case rates. Select file review, research, report writing, deposition, or trial testimony — the rate auto-fills from your case setup.

Audit-Trail Invoices

Generate PDF invoices with timestamped entries, activity descriptions, and rate breakdowns. Designed to survive opposing counsel scrutiny. Every calculation is verified to the penny.

More than just time and billing

Tools built for the full expert witness workflow — from engagement to payment.

Built-in Product Guide

Built-in guide that helps you navigate the app and get the most from every feature. Always available, never auto-navigates — you stay in control.

How it works

From case setup to paid invoice in three steps.

1

Set up your case

Add the attorney, court, case number, and your rates for each activity type. Takes 2 minutes.

2

Log your time

Select the activity type, enter hours, add a description. Rate auto-fills from your case setup. 10 seconds per entry.

3

Generate your invoice

Select unbilled entries, hit generate. A professional PDF with timestamped audit trail, rate breakdowns, and payment terms. Done.

Built for how you actually work

Not a generic time tracker with an invoice button. Every feature exists because expert witnesses need it.

12 activity types, different rates each

File Review at $350. Deposition Testimony at $500. Trial at $750. Per-case rate structures that auto-fill when you log time. No more calculating in your head.

Every entry timestamped and defensible

When opposing counsel challenges your fees, your invoice shows exactly what you did, when you did it, and at what agreed-upon rate. That's the audit trail that prevents disputes.

Replace Toggl + Excel + Word

Stop copying time entries from one tool, calculating totals in another, and formatting invoices in a third. One tool handles the entire workflow from case to payment.

Simple pricing

Less than 6 minutes of your billable time per month.

One avoided billing dispute is worth thousands.

ExpertPractice costs less than a single billable hour.

Frequently asked questions

Is my case data secure and confidential?

Yes. All data is encrypted in transit (TLS) and at rest in a SOC 2-compliant database. We never sell your data or share it for marketing. You can delete everything anytime from Settings.

Can opposing counsel discover my ExpertPractice data under Rule 26?

ExpertPractice stores the same information you'd keep in any billing system — time entries, invoices, and case administration records. These are typically not discoverable under Rule 26(a)(2)(B) as they relate to billing, not opinions. Consult your retaining attorney about specific concerns.

I already use Toggl and Excel. Why switch?

Toggl doesn't understand multi-rate billing by activity type. Excel invoices have no audit trail. ExpertPractice connects your cases, time entries, expenses, and invoices so every dollar is defensible. Most experts save 2-3 hours per month on invoicing alone.

What if I only have a few active cases?

ExpertPractice is valuable even with 2-3 cases. The audit-trail invoice feature alone prevents billing disputes that can cost thousands. And at $49/mo — less than 6 minutes of your billable time — it pays for itself with one prevented dispute.

Is there a free trial?

Yes — 14 days with full access to all features. No credit card required to start. If it's not for you, just don't subscribe.

Can I import my existing cases?

Yes. Upload a CSV or Excel file and our AI-powered importer will map your columns automatically. You can also download a cleaned-up version to verify before importing.

How does the attorney portal work?

When you generate an invoice, you can share it via a secure link. The attorney can view the invoice, line items, and payment status without creating an account.

What does the product guide do?

The built-in Product Guide helps you navigate ExpertPractice and get the most from every feature. It's always available via the sparkle button — ask it how to create a case, generate an invoice, or import your data.
