An Independent Medical Examination (IME) is, as its name suggests, a medical exam undertaken by a neutral, third-party physician. This type of examination comes into play in personal injury cases, especially when the issue of workers’ compensation is activated. Any evaluation made by a doctor after a workplace injury should cover the extent of the patient’s injuries, medical care needed, and overall prognosis of the patient (including any temporary or permanent disabilities). When Would an IME Be Ordered? Whenever your employer’s insurance company disagrees with any conclusions reached by your ..read more

How do you best explain an injury? How do you communicate the pain and suffering someone has gone through as a result of a serious injury or incident of medical malpractice? This is a question we often ask ourselves as personal injury attorneys.

Typically, if an accident is severe enough that someone is injured, the police will have been called to the scene. As with any incident, the police will file a report which becomes a public record. If you have the ..read more
