ExpertConnectBC

British Columbia · Construction & engineering

Construction and engineering experts for BC counsel.

ExpertConnectBC connects construction lawyers and law firms with expert witnesses and consulting experts — structural, geotechnical, envelope, delay, costing, and allied disciplines. We are not a lawyer referral service. Expert–lawyer fees stay off-platform.

Serving all of BC from Vancouver and Victoria. The request board is useful even when the verified directory is still empty.

Three ways to work

Open request board

Counsel post privilege-safe needs — discipline, matter type, region, short summary. No party names. Experts respond on the platform.

See open requests

Public verified directory

Browse independently checked EGBC, AIBC, and ASTTBC registrants when they exist. Unverified applicants never appear as verified.

Browse experts

Private RFP invites

Invite a shortlist. Only those experts can open the matter facts, parties, and any uploaded RFP document.

How counsel use it

Live board

Open expert requests

Privilege-safe teasers from counsel. Share a card on LinkedIn. Party names never appear on this board.

View all requests

Board is ready for the first posts

Counsel and firm admins can publish three open requests before Counsel verification is required. Experts sign up and express interest — no public email, no party names.

Built for construction files

This is not a general litigation directory. v1 is construction and engineering only — medical, psychological, digital forensics, and vocational experts are out of scope.

Disciplines

  • Structural engineering
  • Geotechnical
  • Building envelope
  • Mechanical
  • Electrical
  • Fire / code
  • Quantity surveying
  • Scheduling / delay
  • Cost / quantum
  • Architecture

Matter types

  • Construction defect
  • Delay and disruption
  • Professional negligence
  • Strata
  • Insurance / subrogation
  • Workplace safety

Verification first

Registrant number, regulator badge, and last-checked date. Soft-block: unverified experts cannot appear as verified.

Counsel-controlled sharing

Matter facts and uploaded RFPs stay off the public directory. Only the experts you invite can open the thread.

No brokerage cut

Browse is free. Counsel have a monthly invite limit on the free plan. Expert hourly fees are agreed off-platform.

Opening the directory honestly

We are onboarding the first cohort of BC-registered professionals. There are no placeholder experts and no invented RFP counts. If the directory is empty, that is the true state of the marketplace.
