Spineworks Medico Legal Reports

Medico-legal reports are provided for courts, tribunals and hearings where an independent medical opinion is required. Their purpose is to ensure that an accurate medical diagnosis is provided, leading from which treatment options are provided with an aim to return the claimant to pre-accident state. Once a steady state has been achieved medically, a disability assessment can be made if relevant.

Reports are provided in an efficient timescale during which Mr Quaile’s office can be contacted for updates. Examinations are usually conducted in a medical facility, but on occasion and with prior arrangement a domiciliary visit can be made.

Spineworks Medico Legal Auditing Services

Most medical reports provided to legal and insurance firms during the litigation process are perfectly acceptable. But sometimes they require further clarification, and sometimes they need to be contested. When interpretation or supplementary information is needed, Spineworks can help.

Spineworks can give written, email or telephone advice to aid understanding as well as guidance regarding relevant supplementary questions. Our aim is to help facilitate claims settlement on the best possible terms through:

• A clear interpretation of medical reports.
• An expert framework for supplementary questions and more robust discussions.
• Improved communications throughout your claim settlement and rapid service via letter, email and telephone.
