• Phone number and email address
• Firm and personal website URLs
• Primary specialty derived from the expert's profile title
• All expertise categories from the site's category system
• Keyword credentials from the expert's own profile metadata
• Full biographical narrative or CV summary
• Direct link to the Experts.com profile page

Who Uses Expert Witness Data Like This?

How It Works

1. Fetches the Experts.com sitemap (cached for 24 hours to minimize bandwidth) to discover all expert witness profile URLs — currently over 500 in the sitemap, with more discoverable via category crawling.
2. Filters to expert profile URLs only, excluding category index and search pages.
3. Crawls profiles in parallel batches of 5, parsing each page with Cheerio to extract contact info, categories, credentials, and biography.
