Medico-legal services

Expert Witness

My medico-legal experience is extensive. My services include expert witness report writing and I have given evidence in Magistrates’, County and High Courts. I have an excellent understanding of court procedures.

Acting for both plaintiffs and defendants, I provide an objective assessment of the people referred to me. My reports are straightforward and clear, and I have been commended by judges and counsel for the clarity with which I deliver evidence in court.

Treating assessed clients

I can, of course, also treat your clients who have already been assessed by other expert witnesses.

Areas of expertise include:
• Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. PTSD is a speciality both in my patient practice and my medico legal work. I have also lectured to members of the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers on the condition including its diagnosis and treatment.

• Anxiety disorders and depression
• Accident victims
• Medical negligence
• Stress relating to the workplace
• Personality disorders

I am a member of the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers (APIL), the Expert Witness Institute, and the Association of Victims of Medical Accidents (AvMA).
