About The Expert Institute

The Expert Institute is an expert network firm focused on expert witnesses that it recruits to support court cases and legal disputes. As an expert witness firm, it serves a different client set than regular expert networks do: primarily law firms and individual parties in legal disputes. Some regular expert networks also offer this service, including GLG's Law business and Guidepoint's Legal Solutions team.

The Expert Institute was founded in New York in 2010 by former managers at AlphaSights. The firm has raised $60M in total funding, and describes itself as the leading expert witness platform for law firms, combining its expert network with AI-enabled due diligence tools.

In September 2024, the firm was acquired by LA-based PE firm Levine Leichtman for an undisclosed amount. In June 2025, Expert Institute acquired another expert witness firm, ExpertConnect Litigation Support, LLC.
