Importance of medical evidence in a personal injury claim

Posted on 14th March 2018

A question I am often asked is why it is necessary for us to obtain your whole medical history to progress your claim. A request for your records is often necessary and whilst it may seem intrusive, it is often a vital part of the claim.If your personal injury claim is successful then the amount of compensation awarded will depend on the nature and seriousness of the injuries that you have sustained. You will be required to be examined by a medical expert who will then prepare a medical report which is based on that examination and any relevant medical history recorded in your medical records.
