Expert Directory Listing for Daubert-Quality experts ONLY

According to an email solicitation from, The Daubert Expert Witness directory, (http://www.daubertexpertwitness.com/) the group has created a new expert listing service. The new service will contain only those expert witnesses who can confirm that they have successfully defeated a Daubert challenge.

The charge for a listing is $495 a year for experts. Free for attorneys. Experts have to be able to prove they have survived a Daubert challenge in the past. The FAQ does not say that having your testimony excluded makes you ineligible; you just have to have survived one challenge in the past.

All and all a good idea; we wish them luck on the site.

However, one question comes to mind. What if the expert is 1 (successful challenge) and 29 (exclusions)? Only the 1 successful challenge will show. Not sure how a listing by this expert would be all that helpful for the potential retaining attorney.
