Personal Injury
Although the lawsuit may not require courtroom litigation, being prepared to take the case to a jury is paramount in personal injury claims. Determining the extent of the injury as it relates to the impact on a person’s life and future medical care can be a time-consuming task for a person without medical experience or expertise.
PLAINTIFF AND DEFENSE – Critical Questions:
Are there pre-existing conditions, diagnoses or treatment?
Do you have all of the pertinent medical records? How do you know?
Did you miss the one entry that changed the category from “soft tissue” injury to “hard” injury?
Did you miss the one entry that identified a pre-existing incident, condition, medical/psych evaluation, diagnosis or treatment?
Were all the charges related to the alleged injuries?
Did you identify all the pertinent charges related to the alleged injuries?
