Personal Injury
Our involvement could significantly influence personal injury cases, bolstering your client's claims. With our specialized knowledge, we help strengthen your case and secure the most favorable resolution.
ESTABLISHING CAUSATION
Both the plaintiff and the defense attorneys in a personal injury case benefit immensely from a thorough physical examination, complete review of medical records, diagnostic tests, and expert opinions. These play a pivotal role in establishing a clear and objective connection between the client’s injuries and the alleged negligence or wrongdoing of the responsible party. These form the backbone of a fair and just legal process, ensuring that the court has access to accurate and comprehensive information to assess the causal connection between the injuries and the alleged negligence or wrongdoing.
DETERMINING THE NATURE AND EXTENT OF INJURIES
Your client needs to undergo a thorough medical evaluation to identify the full extent of injuries sustained. This evaluation should cover immediate injuries, as well as potential long-term or hidden injuries. Some injuries may not show any symptoms right away but can worsen over time. By getting a timely medical evaluation, injuries can be accurately identified and documented, making sure that damages are not overlooked during the claim process.
ESTIMATING FUTURE MEDICAL EXPENSES
A comprehensive medical evaluation is instrumental for both the plaintiff and the defense in assessing the anticipated expenses for future medical treatments, rehabilitation, therapy, medications, and other ongoing medical requirements arising from the injuries. It is imperative to provide explanations of the client's expected future healthcare needs to ensure that they receive sufficient compensation to address these expenses.
ESTABLISHING THE SEVERITY OF PAIN AND SUFFERING
A timely and accurate medical evaluation assists in documenting the severity and impact of pain and suffering endured by the injured party. This subjective element of damages can be challenging to quantify but is an essential component of monetary recovery. We provide detailed opinions regarding the pain experienced, the impact on the injured party’s activities of daily living, and the long-term consequences of the injuries.
STRENGTHENING THE CREDIBILITY OF THE CLAIM
Our team is dedicated to integrity and ethics, whether you are a plaintiff seeking rightful compensation or a defendant aiming to present a fair and well-founded defense. We recognize the unique challenges each party faces, and our commitment is to provide unwavering support, backed by solid medical evidence, in the pursuit of a just resolution.
PROVIDING A BASIS FOR DAMAGES CALCULATION
For both plaintiff and defense attorneys, the medical evaluation serves as the cornerstone for assessing the extent of damages, encompassing both economic and non-economic factors. The comprehensive evaluation not only determines medical expenses but also sheds light on lost wages, emotional distress, pain and suffering, and the loss of enjoyment of life. Neglecting this crucial step risks undermining the pursuit of justice and may result in improper compensation for the injured party.
SUMMARY
Seeking immediate and comprehensive medical evaluation after an accident is not only an ethical imperative but also a strategic necessity for both the plaintiff and the defense. It is an investment in the well-being of your client and the success of their personal injury claim. The assessment establishes causation, determines the extent of injuries, estimates future medical expenses, provides credibility for damages calculation, and ensures all damages are accounted for. A thorough assessment also allows for a more nuanced understanding of the injuries and their impact, facilitating fair and informed negotiations.
