At MedSmith Solutions, we understand it is not always easy for the law firms to get an experienced physician review the medical records at discovery stage. Even if you get one in the United States, they are very expensive and not readily available at the convenience of attorneys. MedSmith Solutions experts are always available to engage with the attorneys; starting from early discovery stage until the completion of trial. We offer our medical opinion service at the discovery stage, and help you decide if you will be better off going for a negotiation or a full fledged trial.

As a matter of fact, good medical malpractice case will require evidence for substantial injury as a result of substandard medical care or negligence. Often the negligence is not well documented and almost always the negligent health care providers will attribute the damage to natural course of disease. This is where our experts can make a difference. Our doctors can help you put the piece of evidence together and build a strong medical hypothesis that will be difficult to refute. We always substantiate the medical theory with evidence based medicine or standard medical protocol.
