Orthopaedic Assessments For Personal Injury Claims

Our orthopaedic expert witnesses assess injuries to bones, joints, muscles, and ligaments following an accident, and give a clear, independent opinion on the severity, prognosis, and recovery time. We regularly assess:

• Upper limb injuries, including the shoulder, neck, and upper back.
• Lower limb injuries, including the hips, knees, and ankles.
• Spinal injuries and hand and joint reconstruction cases.

Orthopaedic Reports For Clinical Negligence Cases

In clinical negligence claims, our orthopaedic experts assess whether the standard of care provided met accepted medical practice, and whether any negligence caused or worsened a patient’s condition, in line with the Civil Procedure Rules (CPR Part 35). We support cases involving:

• Misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis of a musculoskeletal condition.
• Surgical complications and poor surgical outcomes.
• Failure to refer to an orthopaedic specialist in good time.

Cost Of A CPR-Compliant Medical Report In The UK

A standard medico-legal report with Evoque Medical starts from £450. The final cost depends on how complex the case is and how much time is needed to complete the report.

For example, a straightforward case usually costs less than a complex case that needs deeper analysis, more than one assessment, and review of several medical records.

We always recommend requesting a callback so we can discuss your case and give you an accurate cost estimate.
