How it works
Specialty, sub-specialty, geography, availability, rates. Upload your CV once. Set your hourly rates for review, deposition, and trial. Takes 5 minutes.
When an attorney submits a case matching your specialty, you get a notification with the AI case summary — merit assessment, SOC flags, clinical issues. Review the summary and accept or decline. No obligation.
Accepted cases come with a complete AI analysis: medical chronology, standard-of-care flags with page references, causation mapping, and deposition questions. Your time goes to clinical judgment, not document sorting.
The attorney's retainer is collected before you begin. Track your time in the platform, submit invoices, get paid. No chasing. No write-offs. No surprises.

From a physician who’s been there
“My first expert witness case, I didn’t collect a retainer. I completed the review, submitted a $15,000 invoice to the law firm, and never got paid.”
“My second case, I had to figure out engagement letters and fee schedules by asking colleagues on Facebook. Nobody teaches you this in residency.”
“I built Annalis so no physician has to learn these lessons the expensive way. Guaranteed payment, rate guidance, templates, pre-analyzed records — everything I wished I had when I started.”
Anup Pradhan, MD·Board-Certified Orthopedic Surgeon·Chair of Orthopedics, Medical City Dallas
Common questions
You set your own rates. Physicians typically charge $300–$900/hour for record review and $500–$1,500/hour for deposition testimony. A typical case involving 10–20 hours of review at $500/hour generates $5,000–$10,000. We provide rate-setting guidance based on your specialty and market data.
Many physicians in our network started with no prior litigation experience. You get access to engagement letter templates, report structure guides, deposition prep materials, and rate-setting guidance — all built by a surgeon who learned these lessons the hard way.
Yes — guaranteed. Annalis collects the attorney's retainer via Stripe before your work begins. Retainers are held in escrow and released against your invoices. You invoice through the platform. No chasing attorneys. No unpaid invoices. No writing off $15,000 because a firm ghosted you.
Cases are matched based on your specialty, sub-specialty, geographic availability, and the clinical issues involved. You receive a case summary with the AI pre-analysis before accepting — so you know exactly what you're getting into. Accept or decline, no obligation.
Before you receive a case, our AI has built a medical chronology, flagged potential standard-of-care issues, and mapped causation chains — all with page references. You start with a structured overview instead of cold-reading 800 pages. Your time goes to clinical judgment, not document sorting.
Expert witness work is generally covered under your existing professional liability policy, but we recommend confirming with your carrier. We can provide guidance on what to ask.
With pre-analyzed records, a straightforward case review takes 8–15 hours. Complex cases with extensive records may take 20–30 hours. Because you're not spending time building your own chronology from scratch, the total time is significantly less than traditional expert review.
Free to join, free to use. Annalis charges a platform fee on completed engagements — you never pay anything out of pocket.
