Spinal Cord Dysfunction Expert Witnesses

Spinal cord dysfunction refers to impaired function of the spinal cord that can affect movement, sensation and other neurological functions. It may result from traumatic injury or non-traumatic causes such as compression, tumours, infection, inflammation or disruption of the blood supply.

Cases involving impaired spinal cord function can raise complex medico-legal questions. These may relate to diagnosis, neurological assessment, imaging, causation, clinical management, rehabilitation and subsequent outcomes.

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