With a track record of 18 years providing timely, clear, independent medical reports to the legal profession, we fully understand the requirements of instructing solicitors, in particular the restricted timescales for civil litigation, the limitations of expertise, and the absolute need for independent, balanced consideration. We bring to bear

• Over 25 years clinical experience in ENT
• Accepting medicolegal instructions since 1990
• Strong academic background in Evidence Based Medicine
• Scientific, analytical and logical approach
• Sound grasp of legal principles / CPR
• Key points of case grasped, summarised & presented effectively

I currently produce around 20 medico-legal reports per year, some commissioned by claimant, some defendant, and increasingly as a single joint expert. In the personal injury field, common areas for reports are

• industrial noise-induced hearing loss
• tinnitus
• ear, nose and throat injuries from road traffic accidents
• medical negligence cases

Mrs Fairley runs a highly efficient office and we have a rapid turnaround for reports, including electronic delivery (secure .pdf format) All reports are produced according to current rules and protocols.

Court appearances may be difficult to fit in with a very busy NHS and private medical practice.
