OUR EXPERTS: Medilex experts are available to review materials, consult with attorneys, prepare written reports and provide expert testimony. Most Medilex experts are current or former department chiefs and/or medical school faculty; they range from well-published academicians to private practitioners. Medilex means methodical case supervision throughout, with the most astute medical-legal advice anywhere. When time is of the essence, most experts can provide expedited reviews for an additional fee.
NO EXPERT SEARCH FEES: Medilex never charges a fee to locate an expert. All monies are applied to the expert's actual work.
FREE TELEPHONE TRIAGE: The process begins with our unique, free telephone triage -- an in-depth case analysis with our director. Having consulted with experts and attorneys on more than 15,000 complex medical-legal cases, he arguably has more experience than anyone in the medical-legal field. For most cases, triage helps: make the medicine more understandable, assess case merits/defenses, frame medical arguments, identify the specialty field(s) implicated, form methodical strategy, determine the requisite materials for review, and detect dispositive issues.
OUR FEE LIMITATION PROMISE: Medilex guarantees that the cost of the initial review and verbal report will not exceed our minimum fee unless you agree in advance. If the expert cannot review your case and provide a verbal report for the minimum fee, you will be told in advance of the exact balance. You can then choose either to have the expert complete the review by paying the balance or to cancel the review and receive a substantial refund. While review times may exceed that covered by the minimum fee, the ultimate control over the fee is yours.
