When an injury leaves lasting effects, the extent of that impairment has to be measured in a consistent, defensible way. Our experts carry out disability assessments and prepare ratings and reports for personal injury, Road Accident Fund and disability matters.
Where required, impairment is rated in line with the American Medical Association's Guides to the Evaluation of Permanent Impairment, 6th Edition.

How the assessment fits the claim
Disability findings feed directly into the questions a claim must answer: whether an injury is serious, what the claimant can no longer do, and what treatment, support or accommodation they will need. We coordinate the disciplines that address those questions so the evidence is consistent across every report.
