Personal Injury and Medico Legal
Through our dedicated teams and nationwide panel of medical experts, we provide medical evidence and associated services for all case types including MedCo, clinical negligence, employers’ liability and public liability.
From instruction to conclusion, we handle all elements of your case allowing you time to work on other areas. Many of our teams work on a case handler basis so you will only ever deal with one person.
In addition to collation of medical evidence we are also able to organise a vast range of rehabilitative treatments, diagnostic investigations, and surgical procedures to help in the recovery of your clients.
This seamless service means there is no need to look elsewhere, and the entire case will be dealt with by us.
Capacity Assessments
Undertaken by our panel of independent clinicians who are well versed in the Mental Capacity Act 2005 and Justice Poole's ruling, our mental capacity assessment service can help determine whether an individual can make decisions about their own welfare.
Assessments include:
- Health assessments - serious injury, care (elderly) and medical (other)
- Welfare assessments - social, accommodation and relationships
- Financial and legal assessments - capacity to gift, lasting power of attorney, property and finance management, capacity to litigate
Employment Law
From medical reporting for disability discrimination cases through to occupational health reports, our experts are on hand to help. Our reports help guide decisions regarding an employee returning to work or to determine whether your client has suffered discrimination because of their disability.
Should the report recommend additional treatments or investigations, we can organise a range of physical and psychological treatments and services at times and locations convenient to your client.

Supporting both claimant and defendant solicitors, we understand the exacting needs of medico legal cases. We have experience and knowledge across all case types and remove the administration associated with the reporting process, allowing you to get on with what you do best.
