Pre-Litigation Screening and Case Analysis

Providing clarity and understanding to the unique field of prehospital emergency medical services, I help medical malpractice attorneys establish standard of care compliance and/or breaches.

In-Depth Analysis and Legal support

Understanding the standard of care provided by paramedics and EMTs is essential in EMS litigation. My expertise allows me to assess whether the care provided met the accepted standards.

A thorough analysis of medical records is critical in understanding EMS cases. Incorporating research into the applicable protocols and operational standards, my medical record review identifies any gaps, errors, or missing documentation that could impact the outcome of the case.

I assist attorneys:

  • Identify factors that caused or contributed to injuries,
  • Reconstruct the timeline of pre-hospital care,
  • Develop deposition & trial strategy.

Providing support to both defendant and plaintiff cases, I offer objective, unbiased analysis and insightful testimony in cases involving paramedics, EMTs, and prehospital emergency medical care.

  • Defendant Support: I help defend actions of EMS providers against claims of negligence or wrongful death.
  • Plaintiff Support: I assist in building strong cases that demonstrate breaches of care or failures in EMS response.
