What is the range of fees charged by an expert in a medical malpractice case?

British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from Fairhurst v. Anglo American PLC, 2013 BCSC 1937 (CanLII):

While I should also rely on my experience in matters of a similar nature in deciding whether the amount charged by a particular expert is reasonable in the circumstances (see Hamo v. Khan, 2010 BCSC 205) the issues that had to be addressed by the experts in this litigation are rather unique and not commonly before the court.
