SPECIAL INTEREST:
After 40 years in clinical practice I have been involved in literally 100’s of car accident cases. This includes: history, examination, diagnosis, treatment, referrals to specialists, documentation and writing narrative reports, with disability ratings. In some cases, I have seen patients accept low offers of settlement for soft-tissue injuries. In becoming a Personal Injury Case Auditor , I have now made it my mission to see that car accident victims receive the settlement amounts that they do deserve, in every case.
