Coverage

• The actor returns records for the United States and Australia only.
• It reads 18 public sources: 7 in the US and 11 in Australia, counting ABIME once in the US. ABIME lists experts in several countries; the actor keeps only its US and Australian records.
• UK and Canadian records are not offered. The country input accepts US and AU only, because the public actor refuses any other country and stops the run with an error.
• The same person on several directories comes back as one record listing every source.
• Every source's own specialty tags map to one taxonomy, so "Forensic Psychiatry" and "Psychiatrist, general adult" filter together.
• Australian panel sources print the panel's contact details, not the doctor's, so those records carry a name, specialty, and state but no email.

Emails

The actor never guesses an email. published_email is empty unless a source page printed an address, and email_source names the page.

Source terms

Several sources publish terms that restrict automated collection, reproduction, commercial use, or soliciting the people they list. The actor README gives the terms posture of each source as it was published when the actor was built. The actor reports the terms; it does not decide for you. Make your own call for your use case, and take legal advice where it matters.

Tool

find_expert_witnesses

Find expert witnesses and medico-legal assessors in the United States and Australia, filtered by specialty, region, country, and source.

Nothing is required. A call with no inputs reads all 18 sources and returns up to 100 experts.

A run with maxItems: 0 reads every listing on every source at one request per 2 seconds per host. It has not been timed, and it may pass the 3,600 second run timeout this wrapper sets. Set maxItems for an interactive call.

Pricing

Expert Witness Directory is pay per event on Apify. Four events are billed.

Actor

Actor ID LIpwlgfE3LaQBaXd4. The wrapper calls the actor by that immutable ID rather than by its Store slug, so a Store rename never breaks it.
