My apologies if this question has been addressed, however, if one is to provide expert witness testimony for a client while working for a consultant firm, does the expert receive additional fee as an adjustment to his/her salary? How is the rate normally decided?
I am curious as to how much a low level engineer is expected to contribute to the company?
The issue at hand: I am a civil engineer with a P.E. and 10 years experience. I work at a small firm and am simply a staff engineer. Should I contribute programming skills to the firm in writing...
