Why hire us as your medico-legal editor?
Why hire us as your medico-legal editor?
Reports are written by medical experts and are used by non-medical professionals. An editor who is familiar with medical topics and writing for an audience that consists of non-medical professionals is your biggest asset.
Reports are used as evaluations or expert witness assessments for personal injury, medical malpractice, insurance claims, and worker’s compensation. Reports are used by laypeople, or people who do not have specialized knowledge in a particular subject, such as:
• Courts, judges, lawyers, law clerks, and legal assistants
• Employers
• Insurance companies and insurance adjusters
• Government and agencies
Privacy Policy
Let’s talk about privacy. Medical professionals have a duty of confidentiality to protect patient privacy and we take this very seriously. We will provide you with a copy of our Confidentiality and Privacy Policy. Included in our robust policy are parameters around safeguarding sensitive and confidential information, dedicated encrypted, two-step password-authenticated systems, and non-disclosure agreements (also known as confidentiality agreements). Contact us for more information.
Additional Information
Working with a medico-legal editor helps you put forward a report that is comprehensive, factually accurate, compelling, objective, and written in plain language. A well written report has a better chance of standing up when under scrutiny by legal counsel and insurance providers. It may also help reduce costly legal fees when cases are resolved or settled out of court.
