Spinal Injury Expert Witnesses

Spinal injury refers to traumatic damage affecting the spinal column and, in some cases, the spinal cord. Injuries can range from damage to the vertebrae and supporting structures to serious neurological injury affecting movement or sensation. Cases involving trauma to the spine can raise complex medico-legal questions. These may relate to the mechanism of injury, initial assessment, diagnosis, imaging, neurological findings, causation, treatment, surgical intervention, rehabilitation and subsequent outcomes. Our spinal and orthopaedic expert witnesses can provide independent, evidence-based medico-legal opinions and reports. Experts may review medical records, spinal imaging, neurological assessments, operative documentation and rehabilitation records. They can provide an opinion on matters within their specialist area of expertise.
