Dementia Expert Witnesses

Dementia is a syndrome associated with an ongoing decline in brain function. It can affect memory, thinking, communication, behaviour and a person’s ability to carry out everyday activities. Different diseases and conditions can cause it.

Cases involving dementia can raise complex medico-legal questions. These may relate to diagnosis, cognitive impairment, mental capacity, functional ability, causation and subsequent outcomes.

Our dementia expert witnesses can provide independent, evidence-based medico-legal opinions and reports. Experts may review medical records, cognitive assessments, imaging and other relevant evidence. They can provide an opinion on matters within their specialist area of expertise.
