How does the expert get paid?
When you submit your bill to the SPD, you will submit the expert bill as an expense. You must also submit the expert’s itemized statement. You will receive a check for your fees and expenses including the cost of the expert. You are then responsible for paying the expert. Expert bills are ordinarily submitted with the attorney’s bill at the end of the case. In some cases an expert bill may be processed before the case is concluded when need is shown. You should contact ACD and request approval to submit an interim bill for your expert costs. Interim bills for experts will be generally approved if the case will not close for at least 60 days and the expert’s work is completed.
