About this Event
This expert witness foundation course will provide key skills, knowledge and technical information to allow participants to safely prepare and submit medico-legal reports in personal injury cases. This course is suitable for medical professionals such as GPs, orthopaedic, maxillofacial, spinal and neuro-surgeons, or rehabilitation and psychiatric specialists, who are looking to improve or refresh their current knowledge of personal injury report writing, or for those who are interested in getting started in the medico-legal industry.
The course covers a comprehensive range of relevant topics for medical expert witnesses, including:
How to write quality personal injury reports (with the opportunity to review sample reports with the lawyers themselves that many of our previous delegates have found extremely useful)
Duties of the Expert
The roles of the various "players" (client, claims management company, claimant solicitor, insurer, defendant solicitor, barrister, judge, other witnesses)
Court room skills including questioning techniques, rules for giving evidence and mistakes to avoid.
Attending ensures entry onto the SpecialistInfo Faculty of Expert Witnesses listing, for eligible medical professionals, and awards 5 CPD points.
The course presenters are Jonathan Dingle and Andrea Barnes, leading barristers from Normanton Chambers.
